Here's a pretty Aqua CD 126 (310) PAT JULY 25 1865, JAN 1870 FEB 22 ". VNM with a cool drizzly amber streak running all the way down from the wire groove to the lower right mold line. Tiny base flake otherwise great shape. Bought at an auction house near the Canadian border. First email gets it for $5 plus shipping. Combine insulator purchases and save on shipping. Thanks!

A well known CREB collector has notified me he has never seen a shop number 9 before, so I'm posting a close-up of the number [id=133103740] He thinks it may be a 0. I still see a 9 with the 'curl' not completing the loop, otherwise it would be an 8. It could be a small 0 that was stamped over a 9.

For those seeking detailed description of embossing:

The C in CLIFF looks the same size to me as the other letters in CLIFF, IE is the same as the other letters in BROOK, the bottom line of the L is even with the top line of the letter E and the D is equal height as the E. The N in N.Y. is below the LI in CLIFF and it is nearly as wide as both letters. The Y in NY although partially obscurred by a straw line is visible below and slightly to the right of the F in CLIFF.

I see some ghosting of letters (ex: CAUVET and the first couple of letters in BROOK and the MLOD appears to have moved slightly.)
