Navy Dept., 1873, 12¢ ultramarine, double transfer of left side (O41 var.), position 50, unused, huge margins Extremely Fine.
Estimate 500 - 750

The fortuitously large margins especially at the left allow the double transfer to dramatically show. The variety normally can only be seen on examples that are seriously off-center to the right; it is rare to find it on a well centered stamp displaying the variety.


 
Realized $1,300
