Cut square from postal stationery (envelope) printed by Hamilton Bank Note Co. (yes...Seebeck)
The picture is Columbus
All stamps and postal stationery of Honduras issued between 1890 and 1895 were printed by Hamilton Bank Note Co.

Listed in the Higgins & Gage catalog as Stamped Envelope #B9. Year of issue is shown as 1892. My 1979 catalog lists the value of a cut square at $0.30, and an entire envelope listed for $4.00.

Hope this is helpful.

Cheers,
Terry.

Checked my four genuine copies- none show your "1396".

Of course, I have lots of counterfeits too.

Rod- Congrats on that nice example!

Thanks Jim, Perf12.
surely, must be just a fragment on the printing plate.
Certainly looks like a "3" under the loupe.

Perf12.
Guess:
I think that is just a "scratch cancel" / manuscript cancel.
No reference to a "1"

I believe these Seebeck postal stationary items were original issued on envelopes but later were issued in sheets and cut into separate stamps and sold in sets to the collecting community and packet makers .I will post mine .

Note : Bumped thread, last post 4 years ago.

"Dawn of Peace"
Sc# 195 to 198
I am happy to relegate these to "Unauthorised reprints"

Mine look dodgy, and measure 52mm x 40mm

Genuine $10 each
The "silver" here looks lavender from my scanner.
Genuine "bronze" looks Brown with mine.

Mine looks over-inked but shows the 1396. Neither the 5 Centavos nor 50 Centavos show this.
