1850, 3pf bright red, type II, four good to large margins, cancelled by the "Leipzig cds dated 29th July 50, there is a very light small ink line (retouched in the certificate) visible at bottom left (slightly touching the stamp), this line has in our opinion never been chemically reduced; a very fine stamp for the early state of plate 2 pos. II showing the spectacular break in the frame line at top right as well as the dots on the "S" of Sachsen and "N" of Franco; cancelled during the first month of usage; cert. Vaatz BPP (2022), (Mi €8'500). (Image)
