Jan. 6" circular datestamp ties 1c pair, second strike ties both 30c, "20" cents debit handstamp to England struck multiple times including tying stamps, transit and receiving backstamps, manuscript rate notations including "ov 1 oz", and "4/-" (4sh) due, 10c stamp nicked corner, bottom flap slit where opened

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE THREE-COLOR TRIPLE-RATE 1861 ISSUE USE FROM FLORIDA TO IRELAND, WHICH WAS UNDERPAID AND TREATED AS COMPLETELY UNPAID.

The 72c franking was an attempt by the sender to pay the triple 24c rate to Ireland, but this was not possible before Apr. 1, 1866 due to British weight progressions. The franking was ignored by the New York exchange office and the underpaid cover was treated as totally unpaid. The correct quadruple rates are reflected in the "20" cents debit handstamps (quadruple 5c to the U.S. for carriage on a British steamer) and the 4sh due marking (Image)
