Description du lot

A perfectly original VG example of this famous denomination blunder. A famous engraving error, the die-sinker carelessly entered the denomination as 50C. The offending digits were partially effaced, but as 25 was entered, the 5 was punched in much too low, then corrected. Thus, the 2 is over a 5, and the 5 is over a 5 over a 0. CAC approved examples are few and far between.
