 5c Large
Queen Pair on 1875 Cover to Scotland, mailed from Hamilton on OCT.14.1875 (duplex) to Edinburgh, Scotland (OCT.26 receiver). The cover is franked with a horizontal pair of the new 5c Large Queen (issued two weeks prior on OCT.1) paying double the
preferred 5c rate (in effect OCT.1) to Great Britain. A few faults do not detract from this scarce franking, early example of the new rate, and early use of this stamp.
