o
China, 1878, Large Dragon on thin paper, 1ca green (Chan 1. Scott 1), an attractive example cancelled by somewhat light but near-maximum strike of "Customs/SEP [?]/78/Newchwang" dater; stamp with several faults, Fine to Very Fine appearance, but still an exceptionally early first-year usage, particularly scarce on the 1ca value. Scott $725 (HK$ 5,710).
Estimate HK$ 4,000 - 5,000.
