EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A MAGNIFICENT ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 15-CENT 1861 RE-ISSUE.

With 2013 P.S.E. certificate (OGph, XF 90; SMQ $10,000.00). The P.S.E. has graded six OG examples of Scott 108 as 90 (and none higher). However, this superbly centered and remarkably fresh stamp stands out among this group. (Image)
