2042 c ImageJacksonville Flor. Nov. 30 (1861). Circular datestamp with "PAID" straightline and "5" rate overstruck "10" on cover to assistant quartermaster of 2nd Florida Regt. at Richmond Va., charge box notation at top, mended backflap tears just extend to front in a few places, appears Very Fine, Van Dyk MacBride believed this to be a postmaster's provisional cover revalued to 10c for the over-500 miles rate, reasoning that since there are four known covers from this correspondence re-rated to 10c, it seems likely they were prepared ahead of time as the Jacksonville postmaster should have had no trouble understanding that the rate to Richmond was 10c (see lot 2085), ex Kohn (Image)
