Stamps were sent to Guadalupe Hidalgo and Odfjell states "Since none have been found, we do not know if these were overprinted "Guadalupe Hidalgo" or just "Mexico". A separate accounting was kept so we know that they were used, but can probably only be told by the postmark". This is the only recorded example of Schatzkes 466 in conjunction with the 1868 issue, 100 points on the 1856 issue - unlisted on other classic issues, and most likely unique.
