Apologies for the mix-up. The US Scott #E3 is indeed a remarkable stamp with a rich history. This 10-cent special delivery stamp, issued in 1893, features an iconic design of a messenger on foot, racing against time to deliver urgent mail. The design symbolizes the dedication and speed of the special delivery service, which was a crucial part of the United States postal system during that era. The stamp is characterized by its vibrant blue color and detailed depiction of the messenger, making it both visually striking and historically significant.

Owning the US Scott #E3 means possessing a piece of American history that showcases a commitment to improving communication across the nation. The special delivery service marked a major advancement in the postal system, and this stamp commemorates that important development. Whether you are an experienced collector or just beginning your philatelic journey, the US Scott #E3 is an essential stamp that embodies the spirit of progress and dedication that characterized the late 19th century in America. Its historical significance, coupled with its aesthetic appeal, makes it a prized and valuable addition to any collection.

I am not an expert in identifying stamps, however, I personally check every perf, watermark, type, secret mark, etc. on each of these stamps. Please let me know if you find otherwise, I do not want to misrepresent something and will end/revise the listing. It's only me creating these listings, so I may make a mistake! If an item you've purchased has been identified as a different Scott # by PSE (or another reputable certification service), and is of less value, I will refund you and pay for return shipping. If it has a higher value, it's your lucky day! If you would still like to return it, I will still pay for return shipping. Certificates must be included with returns.
