Scott $10,000. Estimate $5,000 - 7,500
In early 1857 the Honolulu Post Office applied the 5(cent) manuscript provisional surcharge to existing 13¢ Kamehameha III issues (Scott #6) due to a shortage of regular 5¢ stamps. Their use was shortlived due to a second shipment of 5¢ stamps received in mid-1857 (Scott #8), thus the scarcity of used examples of the provisional. Suggested Bid $5,000-7,500 (Image)
