915 og 2c Pan-American, Center Inverted (295a).> Slightly sweated original gum, choice centering and margins, excellent color, faint diagonal crease at bottom right<><>^EXTREMELY FINE APPEARANCE. A WONDERFULLY WELL-CENTERED AND FRESH EXAMPLE OF THE 2-CE2c Pan-American, Center Inverted (295a). Slightly "sweated" original gum, choice centering and margins, excellent color, faint diagonal crease at bottom right

EXTREMELY FINE APPEARANCE. A WONDERFULLY WELL-CENTERED AND FRESH EXAMPLE OF THE 2-CENT PAN-AMERICAN INVERT. ONE OF THE MOST CELEBRATED INVERT ERRORS IN AMERICAN PHILATELY.

The 2c is the rarest of the three Pan-American Inverts. It is surmised that approximately 200 were issued through the post office, with two distinct shades known. Estimates of surviving examples range from an early count (1945) of 55 unused and 2-3 used to the 1998 Datz estimate of 150 unused, 3-5 used and a block of four intact. Our Levi records contain the intact block (4), reconstructed block (4), 64 unused singles and 6 used singles, for a total of 72 unused and 6 used. Many of the unused singles have disturbed gum or no gum, and/or are off center to top or top left. This Extremely Fine centered stamp with slightly sweated original gum is among the finest-appearing examples.

Ex Balner. With 1985 and 2002 P.F. certificates. Scott footnote states "Almost all unused copies of No. 295a have partial or disturbed gum. Values are for examples with full original gum that is slightly disturbed." (Image)

Beautiful colors, original gum has only a small hinge remnant, fresh and completely sound

FINE. ONE OF THE FEW SOUND EXAMPLES OF THE 4-CENT PAN-AMERICAN INVERT WITH INTACT ORIGINAL GUM.

The 4c Pan-American Invert was a special printing and not regularly issued. Examples were distributed through two official channels, and the gum on the majority of stamps without "Specimen" overprint was disturbed. In fact, because the stamps were removed from mounting paper, they are generally thinned or have seriously disturbed gum. This is a rare exception.
