Unusually wide margins and exceptionally well-centered, dark "August" color with red "paint" cork cancel, the canceling ink is so dense that it makes the stamp look like it has filled thins when placed in a watermark tray, there are a few minor faults and a partly eradicated "58" catalog number on back, Extremely Fine appearance and a desirable stamp despite the flaws
