    1 peseta orange-yellow, a fine used example on 1873 Judicial cover from Contumaza to Caxamarca, neatly cancelled by dotted oval CON / TUMAZA handstamp in black. Reverse with full docketing of sender in manuscript and dated (March 30). A wonderful and very rare usage of this stamp on letter (it is interesting to note that the Eitner collection had no single usages). Cert. Holcombe (1987).
