1859, 5c Gray Blue, "50" centavos instead of "5" cliché error which originates from Stone A, Position 38. The stamp has large margins on three sides and slightly touched at lower right corner, cancelled by "BOGOTA" oval, small tear at
upper right side otherwise in fine condition; cert. Dieter Bortfeldt (2010).
ONLY FIVE EXAMPLES OF THE "50" CENTAVOS TRANSFER ERROR ARE RECORDED. ONE OF THE GREAT RARITIES OF SOUTH AMERICAN PHILATELY.
On Stone A of the 5-centavos a transfer of the 20-centavos was erroneously placed in Position 38. The “2” of the “20” was corrected to a “5,” but the “0” was not removed, producing an unique new “50” centavos denomination. After postal officials
became aware of the error, they destroyed the remaining “50” centavos stamps. This is the reason for the great rarity of this Colombia first issue error.
In the Bortfeldt handbook all five known examples of the rare "50" centavos transfer error are illustrated.
A sound example of this rarity was sold in the Islander collection (Siegel auctions 6.2008 lot 178) for 20,000 USD (Image 1)
