Left half, large margins, tied across the cut by red square grid, matching “New-York Jun. 18” circular datestamp on blue 1851 folded letter to Carbondale Penn., light horizontal file fold barely affects stamp EXTREMELY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE VERTICAL BISECT OF THE 10-CENT 1847 ISSUE. ALTHOUGH THE NEW YORK POST OFFICE WAS ONE OF THE COUNTRY’S LARGEST, 1847 BISECTS FROM THERE ARE UNUSUAL. In The United States 1847 Issue: A Cover Census by Tom Alexander, he records a total of 868 10c 1847 Issue covers used from New York. Of these, only 20 bear bisects, a very small percentage. The New York post office never ran out of 5c stamps, so 10c bisects were only used by senders who did not have their own supply of 5c stamps on hand.
