 10c Columbian (237). Mint N.H. deep rich color and proof-like impression, perfectly centered with wide and balanced marginsEXTREMELY FINE GEM. AN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE
OF THE 10-CENT COLUMBIAN ISSUE, WHICH HAS BEEN GRADED SUPERB 98 BY P.S.E. The 10c is extremely difficult to find with wide and centered margins. For some reason, it can be found with wide margins at sides but almost never is seen this way at top
and bottom. It is easily the most difficult non-dollar-value to find in such choice condition. With 2010 P.S.E. certificate (Superb 98, SMQ $8,500.00). Only two have graded higher to date and only four others share this grade. The last example
in this grade we offered was in 2007, and since that time the population statistics have barely changed -- there were two higher (same as today's statistic) and two others sharing the grade (only two added since then).
