Original gum, appears to us to be almost full and intact but described by P.F. as "redistributed part original gum", large margins to clear at bottom left, beautiful impression on fresh paper, two small thin spots at top and a minute surface scuff to the left of Washington's mouth

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. AN EXTREMELY RARE EXAMPLE OF THE 10-CENT 1847 ISSUE WITH ORIGINAL GUM.

This is an unusually fresh and attractive example of the 10c 1847 Issue, which is a great rarity in original-gum condition. The tiny flaws do not detract from this stamp's appearance, but they will make it more affordable.

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A SCARCE STRIP OF THREE OF THE 10-CENT 1847 ISSUE.

As an indication of the rarity of 10c 1847 multiples larger than a pair, Scott assigns a value of $3,250 for a pair, but $11,000 for the strip of three. Pairs or two singles would often be used on double 10c rate covers, but strips of three, blocks of four or other large multiples were infrequently used. (Image)

FINE-VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE STRIP OF FOUR OF THE 10-CENT 1847 ISSUE. VERY FEW EXIST.

As an indication of rarity, Scott prices a block of four at $75,000, a strip of three at $11,000, and a pair at $3,250. Large multiples such as this were used infrequently. This probably paid the 40c transcontinental rate to California.

With 1987 P.F. certificate. Scott Retail as a strip of three and a single, which does not adequately convey the rarity or value of this item (Image)
