1857, 5c on 13c Dark Red (7). Type I surcharge applied by Alvah Clark (Postmaster Jackson's clerk), ample margins to touched at lower left, cancelled by "San Francisco Cal." circular datestamp (uncancelled in Hawaii), small tear at upper left, about one-third of back is thinned (not unusual for this very thick paper)

FINE APPEARANCE. THE 1857 REVALUED "5" ON 13-CENT PROVISIONAL IS ONE OF THE SCARCEST AND MOST DESIRABLE HAWAIIAN ISSUES.

Cancelled examples of this issue are scarcer and more valuable than unused (or uncancelled) copies. With 2007 P.F. certificate
