EXTREMELY FINE APPEARANCE. THIS IS THE LARGEST RECORDED MULTIPLE OF THE ENTIRE PERU 1858 ISSUE. IT WAS THE FRONTISPIECE OF THE COLONEL JOHN F. RIDER COLLECTION SOLD BY ROBSON LOWE IN 1978 AND IS CONSIDERED TO BE ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ITEMS OF PERUVIAN PHILATELY.
The 1858 One-dinero lithographic stone was made from multiple transfers of the 20-unit bloc report. The bloc report contained 19 different transfers. Position 16 was either blank on the original bloc report or the transfers on the printing stone were erased and replaced with different types from the bloc report. In this block we have parts of four different transfers of the bloc report. Type 10 was used to fill in Position 16 (top row, fifth stamp from left).

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. THIS IS THE LARGEST RECORDED STRIP OF THE ONE-DINERO 1858 ISSUE. AN IMPORTANT PIECE OF CLASSIC PERU.
EXTREMELY FINE. THIS IS THE EARLIEST RECORDED USE OF PERU'S 1858 ISSUE. THE LETTER IS DATED JUST ONE DAY AFTER THE MARCH 10, 1858, ISSUE DATE, AND THE CALLAO DATESTAMP WAS APPLIED ON THE FOLLOWING DAY.
The short-distance rate of one-dinero applied to this letter from Callao to Lima. Dated on March 11 and postmarked on March 12, this cover is the earliest known use of the First Issue and very close to the March 10, 1858, first day of issue. (Image)
