    1859: "50 centavos blue", error of Transfer for 5 c., position 38 on the second setting sheet which was later punched from the sheet once the error was noticed by the Post Office. A superb used example with close to large margins all round, cancelled by pearled BOGOTÁ oval handstamp in black fortunately leaving the variety clearly showing at base. A magnificent stamp, notably one of the rarest stamps of all classic philately, with just 5 examples recorded.
