    1 peso rose-red used on 1865 cover to Rio Negro in combination with October 1863 5 c. orange (Type II) and 50 c. green (Type I), all tied by two strikes of oval MEDELLIN / FRANCA handstamps in blue. Framed 'Agencia Principal de / Correos / Medellin 27 Nbre / 1865' struck twice at right also in blue. An extraordinary high franking, the letter being annotated at top '169 grams' in manuscript and at right '$1.55 cs.' paying the rate thus: 15 c. per each 10 grams up to 150 grams, 5 c. perf 10 grams therefater. Slight paper loss at upper left, vertical crease at left and some restoration on reverse not detracting from the great rarity of this cover - the sole usage of the 1 peso on letter (one of only two covers known bearing a peso value in the classic period) with just three covers recorded bearing the 1863 50 centavos green. An Exhibition item.

    Provenance: Collection Juan Santa Maria.
