VERY FINE. AN OUTSTANDING 15-CENT LINCOLN COVER WITH A RARE, IF NOT UNIQUE, GRILLED ISSUE FRANKING FOR THE DOUBLE BRITISH MAIL RATE TO SPAIN.

According to U.S.-Spain Mails via British Convention, 1849-1876 by Richard F. Winter (supplement to Chronicle 147, pp. 15-16), the Convention rates effective from Jan. 1, 1868, to Dec. 31, 1870, followed a progression of 10c U.S. per -1/2 oz. and 12c credit to G.B. per 7.5 grams (-1/4 oz.). This letter must have weighed about a half-ounce and was rated as prepaid in New York with a 24c double U.S. credit to G.B. However, the G.B. credit to Spain was 6p, corresponding to the triple 7.5 gram weight class.
