Lot Description

The most visible and desirable of the five overdate varieties for this issue listed in the <em>Cherrypickers' Guide</em> (2015 edition), close inspection with a loupe reveals particularly wide separation between the two date logotypes at the digits 1 and 3. This pretty BU example exhibits a dusting of pale champagne-pink iridescence on bright, frosty surfaces. Sharply struck and crisp.
