Only one cleanly removed drip in the rear and one tiny tick on the upper rear wire groove. Displays dead mint from the front!

Embossing: Hemingray/No. 9//Patent/May 2 1893. In the price guide this is [250]. A special note about this insulator, there is a mark under the y in Hemingray that appears to have been a previous blot out, in addition the '8' and '9' in 1893 have overlapped each other as if the engraver had a few too many drinks at lunch.
