Hi Manuel, yes it looks like an 8 but the position versus MAY needs to be checked to confirm. Thanks JC

Fantastic, Great early date and from another location than Mexico. May I ask what your earliest date on cover is ? Thanks JCBy the way, I suppose you meant 10 MAY not August ?

May 15, 1864 Official First Day of Eagle

According to Pietsch, the first Eagles were issued on May 8, 1864 but the official release date was May 15, 1864. Is there any earlier date known on Eagle? I found a first day on a 2R. Is it known on cover yet ? Thanks. JC
