Very Fine. Apparently Unpublished.

From a private German collection.

Visible under the elephant's trunk on the reverse are the letters NE or ligate ME, which are seemingly perhaps an as yet unrecorded control mark also visible on one other known specimen (Roma E-Sale 14, 27 December 2014, lot 226).
