VERY FINE APPEARING CONFEDERATE FLAG PATRIOTIC COVER WITH THE 5-CENT GREEN GENERAL ISSUE.
Norfolk was occupied by federal forces beginning in May 1862.

VERY FINE. AN EARLY USE OF THE FIRST GENERAL ISSUE ON A BEAUTIFUL CONFEDERATE FLAG PATRIOTIC COVER.
We have offered examples of this flag design with ten 6-point stars (F10-3), but this modified 12-Star version is exceedingly rare (it should be listed as F12-7).

VERY FINE. A COLORFUL AND RARE EXAMPLE OF THIS 10-STAR FLAG PATRIOTIC DESIGN WITH TWO OF THE 5-CENT GREEN FIRST ISSUE LITHOGRAPH.
This is also a scarce Confederate use from Norfolk, which was permanently occupied by Union forces one month after this cover was mailed. We have encountered only a few examples of this design, each used from Norfolk with General Issue stamps, and most are faulty to a far greater degree than the cover offered here. This is also the latest use of this design that we have offered.
