Arago: 2-cent Cordoba

Up
2-cent Cordoba

The 2-cent vermilion and black Cordoba, Type I overprint, was first issued on November 8, 1909. Thanks to the 1990 ABNCo archives sale, collectors have identified the two different printings of this stamp by the very slight differences in the length of the words CANAL ZONE.

The only recorded error of the 2-cent is a vertical pair, imperforate horizontally of which there are an estimated thirty pairs. In addition, handmade booklets were made.
