    1865: 50 c. green, large figures, fine example with sheet margin at right, just touched at top and with a couple of minor stitch holes, used on 1865 registered cover to Cartagena tied by superb 'Certificacion à Bogotá / Salio en 17 de Mayo de 1865' handstamp in red with date filled in manuscript. Nine '0' marks denoting registration at edges, reverse with Postmaster's red circular seal cachet. A delightful cover: one of only two, perhaps three covers recorded with the 50 centavos Large Figures. Cert. Moorhouse (2014).
