AN IMPORTANT BULL'S EYE MULTIPLE CONTAINING TWO SEMI-XIPHOPAGUS EXAMPLES OF THE 60-REIS FROM THE COMPOSITE PLATE.

Bull's Eye stamps from the composite plates that show the diving line between panes are called Semi-Xiphopagus. Such stamps are especially desirable because they can be immediately recognized as examples from the composite plates without the need for plating (the two known Xiphopagus multiples are, of course, the se-tenant pair and strip of three). The 60r Semi-Xiphopagus stamps come from the top or bottom of the middle pane (twelve positions). As a measure of this block's rarity, the Meyer collection sold through Feldman in October 2007, which was said to contain a "record holding" of Semi-Xiphopagus stamps, had three small multiples and five singles of the 60r Semi-Xiphopagus.

EXTREMELY FINE. A MAGNIFICENT EXAMPLE OF THE 60-REIS BULL'S EYE TIED BY A STRAIGHTLINE TOWN MARKING ON THE ADDRESS SIDE OF THE COVER.
