FINE APPEARANCE. A REMARKABLE ATTEMPTED USE OF THE DEMONETIZED ONE-CENT 1857 ISSUE TO PAY THE OBSOLETE CARRIER FEE ON A SEPTEMBER 1863 COVER WITH REGULAR POSTAGE PAID BY A BLACK JACK BISECT AND SINGLE.

The sender obviously considered demonetized and bisected stamps to be valid for postage, but he was apparently unaware that the carrier fee had been abolished in July 1863 when the 2c Black Jack was issued. This was presumably mailed in September 1863, and the post office seems to have been content with half a Black Jack and the 1c to make up the 3c rate.

Ex Neinken. With 1974 P.F. certificate (Image)
