It's a pretty standard lone Old English 'F'
Also, if what was said in post #2 from the thread below is accurate regarding the stamp appearing on cards issued after Fitzgerald's death, I really don't understand the continued speculation. Is that statement (in post #2) erroneous, or is the legend and its associated premium pricing just that much more appealing than reality?
