 8c Trans-Mississippi (289). Mint N.H., deep rich color and proof-like impression on crisp paper, gorgeous centering with unusually wide and balanced marginsEXTREMELY FINE GEM. THIS MAGNIFICENT
STAMP HAS BEEN AWARDED THE GRADE OF SUPERB 98 BY P.S.E. -- ONLY TWO HAVE GRADED HIGHER TO DATE AND ONLY THREE OTHERS SHARE THIS DESIRABLE GRADE. Collectors in pursuit of superb 19th Century commemorative stamps are well aware of the challenge in
locating the 8c Trans-Mississippi with wide margins and choice centering. An examination of 8c multiples will reveal the fact that the space between horizontal rows was narrower than the space between vertical columns. Wide top and bottom margins
that match the sides could only occur when the horizontal perforations were misapplied to a row, thereby impinging on the space allocated to the rows above and below. With 2009 P.S.E. certificate (Superb 98, SMQ $26,400.00). (Image) Search for comparables at SiegelAuctions.com |
