1857, 60c. blue, an outstanding example graced by brilliant shade and detailed impression, wide to very large margins for the most part displaying part of adjoining frame line at right. Considering that most of the circa 40 genuine copies recorded do not possess complete margins, this extremely rare example must be considered as an item of exceptional quality, especially as the stamp is free from the usual faults that plague this issue. A very desirable classic rarity of South American philately. Certs. Hernández Rocha. Ciardi 1A. Ex Sciarra. Starting Price US$ 5,000
