This is the 1874 25c "faint or missing crossbar" As in CANADA.
It has also been called "3 inverted Vs" in CANADA, as one theory was that Vs were used in place of As in CANADA, with the crossbars lightly drawn in by hand, once the mistake was recognized.
It is quite scarce, appearing about 1 in every 50 1874s.
