Here for sale is a Blue Aqua CD 134 EIN [050] (F-Skirt) PATENT/DEC. 19. 1871 (R-Skirt) PATENT/MAY 2 1893 SDP with some base damage consisting of a bruise at the right front and six or seven damaged drips. Color is bluer than the photos show. There is also a pencil point tic on the dome and a couple tiny dings on the rear wire ridge mentioned for accuracy. On the plus side, there are a couple of good-size bubbles in the dome and front crown, and it displays very well from the rear, as shown in the upper left photo. Click on View Original, above, for greater detail. The latest Price Guide lists Blue Aqua for this EIN at $40-$50. However, this might be EIN [055], with the missing bar in the A in MAY, but the surface has an "orange peel" effect making it hard for me to tell. If so, this is an unlisted color, as the PG shows only Hemi-blue and light green aqua for that EIN, and this piece ain't either of those colors. Asking $8 plus postage.
