1861年2月20日寄爪哇无票摺封, 销红色圆圈型 "厦门/ 邮资已付" 日戳, 邮费 "25" 以黑墨书写. 封舌有清晰2月23日香港中转戳; 另有些红色笔记号. 记录上只有八件盖"厦门/ 邮资已付" 戳的邮件. 弥足珍贵.Amoy British Consular Post 1861 (20 Feb.) small stampless entire letter to Java bearing a light and sharp strike of the circular "<H>amoy/paid" c.d.s. in red, "<I>25" rate mark in black ink and, on the flap, a fine strike of Hong Kong c.d.s. (23.2); there is an indistinct rate mark in red crayon. A charming and delightful example of this scarce marking. Webb records only eight covers bearing the Amoy Paid datestamp, although another six have been reported subsequently. Photo
