Losnr. : 178 Peru
British Post Offices abroad: 1876: (Oct. 28): 1/- green pl.12 OI, and 6d grey pl.15 DF paying the 1/6 rate for a letter to England, in combination with a 1866 20c. brown bisected for the inland rate, all tied by three slightly unclear strikes of the C38 obliterator of CALLAO. The letter is endorsed via Panama and bears the CALLAO single circle on the back, as well as a receiving single circle of COLCHESTER. According to the enclosed certificate Potel, the combination with a bisected 20c. stamp is only recorded on three further items and was only used in October 1876. There is minor wear on the cover but this nonetheless represents a rarity of both Peruvian Philately and British Offices Abroad. Certificates POTEL (2003) and Moorhouse (2006).Ausruf : 1.250 CHFZuschlag : 1.400 CHF
