Scott No. 94; Estimate $500 - 750. In 1864, Nevada became a state, but its eastern and western borders were not yet surveyed and located. By 1867, the new state had been given the option of extending its southern boundary. Though it took Nevada's state legislature over six months to agree to the new land, it officially became part of Nevada in 1867. The authorities in the Arizona territory, from which the land was being taken, scrambled to create a county, called Pah-Ute County, which included the land being lost, as an attempt to lay a better claim. The confusion extended to the Post Office Department, which noted the Post Office of St. Joseph as in Pah-ute County, Arizona Territory, on October 1, 1868, and then finally placed it in Lincoln (later Clark) County, Nevada, in April 1871.
