FREE: USA #2877 1994 Peace Dove on G-Rate Make-up rate stamp, mint

The listing, USA #2877 1994 Peace Dove on G-Rate Make-up rate stamp, mint has ended.

USA stamp featuring a dove of peace. This is the "G-rate" make-up rate stamp. When postage increased from 29c to 32c in 1994, they issued "G-rate" (32c) stamps. This stamp was designed so that people could use up their older 29c stamps along with this stamp to pay the 32c rate. At the time, since they did not always know ahead of time what the new rates would be, they simply called them "G" rate (it started with "A"-rate stamps in the 1970's).

There are actually 2 varieties of this stamp (from different printers). The other stamp (#2878) has the lower text slightly bolder and the bird is a darker blue; you will receive the 1st version, #2877. Should I ever get a hold of the other stamp, I'll put it up as a separate lot.
