Portrait of Washington after the same original as the 10. and 12-cent, but reduced to about two-thirds the size and facing three-quarters to the right. Double lines inclose the medallion, with a space sufficient between them to place at the top in white capitals the words "U. S. postage" and upon the lower half the words "Twenty four cents." These two inscriptions are separated on each side by rectangular ornaments with a white border and a white spot in the middle. Outside of this is intricate lathe-work extending to the outer limit of the stamp, which has rounded corners and curved outer lines. Color, very dark lilac.
