1843, 1844
pair of SFL relating to 2 1/2% exchange surcharge, the first 1843 Hamilton, UC (DE 28) to New York, rated "Paid", "4 1/2"d to border, and "25"c US converted to "1/3 1/2" being 25c PLUS 2.5% exchange surcharge, for total of 1/8 Cy prepaid. The second
cover 1844 Hamilton (JAN 13) to New York rated in the same manner. The 2.5% exchange surcharge was a short lived post office fee between May 17, 1842 and Dec 27, 1843 to cover the cost of the border postmaster's expense of converting and remitting
postal monies to their US crossborder postmasters. The Canadian postmaster Stayner issued a circular Dec 27 cancelling the 2.5% exchange surcharge so the postmaster would not be aware of the change, but most certainly by the time the second cover was
sent. So the first cover was technically overcharged 1/2d for the small period of time it took t receive the notice, but the second one was most likely deliberate overcharging of postage. Ex Steinhart (Image) (Image2)

1867 Hamilton
(AU 7 1867) ties #14 1¢ Rose on printed circular to Guelph. Not only is the circular amazingly clean and attractive with the unusual use of the dater to cancel the stamp, but the three page circular has a COLOUR printed header for McKenzie & MacKay
wool and flax brokers. This is the first COLOUR internal printed circular that I can recall seeing. (Image) (Image2)

1899 #78 3¢
Numeral bisect tied by Upper Stewiacke, NS (JA 7 99) along with #74 1/2¢ Numeral to Truro, NS bs. Although not tied across the bisect, the rate is 2¢ paying the newly enacted 2¢ rate (Jan 1 1899). It is likely mailed from the dealer Cox, and occurs
at the same time as the Port Hood bisect. I would suggest that he tried to invent covers for sale like the Port Hood example. There are documented instances of postmasters in Nova Scotia being reprimanded for hording stamps for personal sale. (Image)
