Item Description

The George Washington 3 Cent Stamp honored the Revolutionary War Hero and the first President of the United States. This stamp was issued during the United States Civil War and for a period of time was used as small change until Postage Currency was issued. On March 3, 1863, with an effective date of July 1, 1863, created a rate of three cents for each half ounce, first-class domestic mail. This Act was the first law that established a uniform rate of postage regardless of the distance. This rate remained in effect until October 1, 1883.
