Customs Datestamp: 1878 (13 Oct.) 5ca. orange-yellow [22] bearing a central and typically light strike of the "i.g. of customs/peking" datestamp in blue. The stamp is quite well centred, there are some clipped perforations in the lower left corner and a light diagonal wrinkle. A fresh and appealing example which clearly shows the date slugs. Photo
