 30c Orange Red, Perf 10
(476A). Pos. 64 from Plate 6911, Mint N.H., vivid colorFRESH AND
VERY FINE. AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE OF THE VERY RARE 30-CENT PERF 10
WASHINGTON-FRANKLIN ON UNWATERMARKED PAPER. Despite the recent PSE
claim that a watermark has been "discovered" on one stamp from one of the
476A panes, the vestige of a watermark on the dandy roll used to make
unwatermarked paper has been known to philatelists since 1918. The
unwatermarked paper supplied to the Bureau for printings of sheets that
were perforated gauge 10 and 11 is known to have had "ghost" watermarks
where the brass pieces were removed. We currently side with the group of
philatelists who believe that the 30c Perf 10 Unwatermarked, Scott 476A,
was legitimately issued. With 1984 P.F. certificate (Image) |
