I would be very interested in a picture(s) of these $25,000.00 stamps and on covers-
US Stamp Prices Scott 169: 1875 3c George Washington Bank Note Special Printing. Page 1
Prices of US Stamp Scott # 169: 3c 1875 Washington Special Printing. Robert Siegel Auction Galleries, Apr 2015, Sale 1096, Lot 314
3c Blue Green, Special Printing (169). Without gum as issued, intact perforations all around except where a few short at left, rich color, small tear at top left VERY FINE APPEARING EXAMPLE OF THE 3-CENT 1875 CONTINENTAL BANK NOTE COMPANY SPECIAL PRINTING. Our census of Scott 169 contains 35 examples that have been certified as genuine by The Philatelic Foundation (including one on cover). Of these, only three have perforations all around and are confirmed as sound. The example offered here is desirable despite the small tear. Census No. 169-UNC-34. With 1996 P.F. certificate

What conditions would allow someone to obtain one of these stamps?
When someone purchased a stamp did it get mails right away.
Would it have been a first class postage |
