Fine American printing.
Horse on arms facing right.
No frame lines between stamps.
Many forgeries known.
The upper and lower inscriptions are very well done in the earlier specimens, and moderately
well done in later ones. Le premier "o" et le "e" of correo are the same height as the other letters, without any white patches above them.
Le mot "libertad" is very nearly as far from the top outline of the containing-lahel as it is from the bottom outline of it; et le "1" et le "D" are both half a millimetre from their respective ends of the label. The central
division-line of the part of the shield above the horse is no thicker than the rest of the thin vertical lines behind the wheat-sheaf in the left-hand compartment of it. The legs of the horse are nicely done, and thin ; and there is no particularly-marked object below him in the shield. The general background of the stamp is composed of tolerably thick vertical lines, which in some copies are crossed by very fine horizontal lines. The head of the horse does not touch the curved outline of the compartment in which he is placed. The groundwork of the said compartment is formed by fine horizontal lines.
