Saw this 1865 fancy 5 DDR advertised, from France. Well, he doesn't have the reference but, it sure resembles the real thing......be forwarned.image

    Lakesammman,

    Am I missing something? I don't see anything on the reverse that faintly resembles a 1865 DDO Snow-2. ??? image

    Maybe I was too subtle - I don't see anything either!image

    I thought so - but my subtlety quotient was used up much earlier today!image

    The trouble with you variety experts being subtle is it confuses us learners! image

    Thanks for the warning. image

    But I wish somebody would give me some information about the 1889 DDR? Still lost on that one? What does it look like?image

    It's a mixed class 4/8 hub doubling. The keys are 4-5 shield lines (instead of 3), prominent doubling of the viens on the leaves, class 4 doubling to the west evident on the leaves, remainder subtle. There is S2 DDR for the same year but it is a Class II distorted hub DDR. With 34 reported, I'm surprised to not have seen more of them offered.
