VERY FINE. A RARE CUT SQUARE OF THE 10-CENT DARK RED ON WHITE WAR DEPARTMENT REAY ISSUE.
The 2012 UPSS catalogue records just one mint entire of the 10c Dark Red on White, though experts we have consulted question the existence of a full entire. We have offered only two others (full corners) since keeping computerized records.
