Lithographed on thin wove paper, rather hard, and usually with a very slight surface-tint of the same colour as the stamp ; and also on blue paper. Both of the cornucopiae in the top compartment of the shield have blunt, rounded outer ends, very nearly touching the sides of the shield, and neither of them curling downwards more than the other. Each of them is
disgorging pieces of money, which are tolerably distinct. The flower standing up between them, and separating them from each other, is apparently a tulip, almost closed, and leaning over to the
droit. The cap of Liberty in the central compartment is large and distinct, and is shaded all over with oblique lines, running from the right downwards to the left. The tassel or top of the cap bends over to the left, and hangs down level with the bottom of the part
which is supposed to go on the head. The pole which bears the cap gets suddenly wider towards the top. The bend of the cap just touches the transverse line above it. Two parallel lines close together separate the top compartment of the shield from the second, and two similar lines, equally close together, separate the second
compartment from the bottom one. The peaked part at the centre of the top of the shield is a good deal higher than the corners. Above the shield there are nine six-pointed stars, arranged in two rows, the upper row curving upwards in the centre, the lower row curving downwards in the centre, so that the whole looks like a
narrow, transverse, oval ring of stars. The leaves in the two branches of the wreath are unmistakable oak-leaves, and they are all shaded more or less all over with oblique lines running from the
left downwards towards the right. The point of the lowest leaf on the left-hand side touches the corner of the inner frame, just under the letter "E" de "E.U. DE", etc.. The side of the top leaf but one in the right-hand branch touches the frame very distinctly, beside the "I" de "Nacionales". Le bouton "S" of this latter word is exactly level with the "E" de "E.U. DE", etc., on the opposite side. There is an eight-pointed
star or asterisk at the top of the frame between "COLOMBIA" et "CORREOS". The bottom end of the right-hand branch, which crosses over to the left, is nearer to the line below it than the corresponding bottom end of the left-hand branch which crosses under it to the right.
