Item Description

USA, 1862, Benjamin Franklin, #110 - 1875 Reprint, 24c Re-issue was printed from the original plate of 200 items. A total of 10,000 (50 copies) were printed. Only 346 of the 24c were sold; the remaining 9,654 were destroyed on 16 July 1884.

These were called "special printings" of 1875. All original plates were used except US #1 and #2. The 1847 plates had to be reproduced as the originals were lost to history.

All prints were on a harder whiter paper than the originals and most had a shade difference from the originals.
