CSA
#4 Stone 2 Plated as Position 40 USED (margin
just touches on the right) with a light town CDS not otherwise
identified. Also canceling the stamp as a handstamp
“6cts.” This handstamp was a
Union mark as there was no 6c rate in the Confederacy. Most likely this
stamp was on an early through-the-lines cover on which Union 6cts
postage
due was assessed. Another explanantion might be that the CSA postmaster
still had an old Union handstamp available and simply used it to cancel
the
stamp. Can think of no other explanantions as to how a Union handstamp
can show up on a CSA stamp. Stamp with small thins and one tiny pinhole.
SOLD
