Description
50¢ Second Issue D-5-18-63 Negative Essay
Milton 2E50R.2 50¢ Second Issue Negative Essay PMG About Uncirculated 55 EPQ. This Wide Margin Negative Essay Experimental printing has the bronze "D-5-18-63" corner surcharges as well as the large "50" surcharge. It is identical to item #23 on Ed Frossard's special list #8 issued October 1, 1893. On that list, Frossard had mistaken the Old English "D" for a "B." He did that in every instance where this surcharge appears. It was described on that list, "50¢ Carmine Back, with large skeleton 50 in gold; B-5-18-63 in corners. White fibrous paper," and priced at $2.00. The original embossed effect is very apparent on this thin, white fiber paper. This is one of the few instances where the "D-5-18-63" surcharge appears on a uniface Wide Margin note. A single light diagonal fold holds this great note from the Gem grade.From the Cocoa Beach Collection
