Lot Sym. Lot Description  
1010 TC ImageHAWAII, 1853, 5c Black, Trial Color Plate Proof on Thick Wove (5TC). Large and even margins all around, crisp impression, a few thin spots

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. THE 1853 5-CENT KAMEHAMEHA III BLACK TRIAL COLOR PROOF IS EXTREMELY RARE. ONLY FIVE EXAMPLES ARE KNOWN TO US.

We record only five examples of this rare trial color proof. Three were at one time in sets with the 13c. The five 5c proofs known to us are as follows: 1) ex Tows, Middendorf and Honolulu Advertiser; 2) ex Ishikawa; 3) ex Golden; 4) ex Crocker and Pietsch; and 5) ex Drucker, the example offered here. This example, with four margins, is superior to the last example we offered in the Golden collection.

Ex Drucker. With 1978 P.F. certificate (Image)
