Postal History
1825 (3 Jan.), entire letter to the Archbishop Primate of Ireland at Armagh, with Inspectors Crown struck just above superb scrolled "wrong date" (giving the appearance of being a single handstamp), endorsed "Put in Jany 1826" and charged at the penalty treble rate 2/3; vertical filing fold clear of the markings, fine. A fabulous Irish Postal History rarity of great importance. The finer of only two recorded examples. Photo
