Struck on obverse with oval framed "ADVERTISED" (Feb 28, 1863) and "UNCLAIMED" (March 28) in black - the earliest recorded dates of use of both these markings: clearly struck on the last working day of each month and therefore lists were presumably published at the P.O. regarding these 'missing' letters.
