½¢ to $5 JUBILEE ISSUE
complete in small DIE PROOFS in BLACK, printed on India paper and mounted on very thin card, each with clear margins around stamp design and showing IMPRINT at top consisting of B and separate Die No for each denomination, which run
consecutively from F-10 for the 1¢ to < BF-24 for the $5 value and the ½¢ value with Die No F-51 (demonstrating that the need for the ½¢ denomination as part of the original set was initially unanticipated, and providing an
explanation for the small number printed and its' initial 'sell-out' at the post-office), probably cut from the Bank Note Co RECORD BOOK, the 1¢, 10¢, $1, $2 and $3 values exhibit some light toning (from show through of the mounting adhesive) but
this is THE ONLY SET EVER OFFERED PUBLICLYEx - Brigham. (Image) (imagea)
