Aug. 7" (1850) circular datestamp on greenish folded cover to Albany, New York, Extremely Fine, the use of true yellow-orange ink to cancel the 1847 Issue is very rare--Leroy received no 1847 stamps of either denomination, the USPCS census lists only three 5¢ covers and no 10¢ covers--ex Sampson, Meroni, Meyersburg and Saadi, with 1991 P.F. certificate and accompanied by a letter from Roy White confirming the yellow-orange markings (Image)
