Official queries, threats, and even job loses followed the group until the sale of the pane was ruled legal, since it was purchased at a post office. Only 95 of the original 100 errors have been accounted for, with the others presumably used on mail,

1917-19 (16.5) money transfer card for 15 rubles, sent from Lemburg, Lifland to a soldier with the 13th Finland regiment, via the Head Field Post Office at Velikie-Luki, from where it was directed to F.P.O. No.19, then to F.P.O. No.20, then F.P.O. No.18. Over 3 months later received in Kovrov, then to Riga (2.4.18), back to Kovrov (22.3.19) and finally returned to Lemburg two years later! A historical document, reflecting the fluid military situation and the disruption of postal communications during this period which saw the Bolshevik Revolution, German occupation of the Baltic States, the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk, the Allied Armistice and civil war in Russia. Despite the nearly two years of effort, the poor soldier never received his (now vastly devalued and nearly worthless) 15 rubles

NICARAGUA Province of Zealaya - Cabo Gracias a Dios
1904-05 (Bluefields), also known as the "Mosquito Coast". Cabo Gracias a Dios is a cape and seaport town in the extreme northeast of Nicaragua. Special postage stamps were necessary in both places, because for a period of time, the currency there was worth more than the national currency of Nicaragua. Silver currency was used in Zelaya and Cabo Gracias a Dios, white the rest of the country used paper money. The Mosquito Coast has had a turbulent history, with Spanish, British and American involvements. The stamps from this area are among the most interesting areas of philately. We are pleased to present a major, specialized collection, written up exhibition style on pages, with 4,800+ mostly unused stamps (including multiples, usually complete settings of the surcharge), perf. and occasional imperf. varieties of overprints and surcharges, with most major issues listed, also hundreds of unlisted or unauthorized surcharges, plus countless errors, some plate proofs, die proofs, Waterlow & Sons compound pro
