1856, 60c. slate blue, position 8, a handsome clear impression and striking shade, three complete to mostly huge margins, showing part of upper neighbour adhesive, just slightly in at bottom not touching the value tablet, tied to cover to San Carlos by pen cross. An absolutely outstanding and most desirable cover, the only recorded in this sensational and extremely elusive shade. A gem of the ''Diligencias'' issue. Cert. Hernández Rocha. Ciardi 1a. Ex Sciarra.
