5c Carmine, Imperforate, Error (485). Mint N.H. single error in block of nine, huge margins showing significant portions of eleven adjoining stamps, brilliant color, light natural gum wrinkles

EXTREMELY FINE. A STUNNING MINT NEVER HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 5-CENT IMPERFORATE ERROR IN A BLOCK OF NINE.

During the course of production of the normal 2c plate No. 7942, three positions were noted to be defective. The plate was returned to the siderographer, who burnished out the three positions and mistakenly re-entered them using a transfer roll for the 5c stamp. The error passed unnoticed and the sheets were issued. (Image)

2c Carmine, Ty. II, Coil (491). Mint N.H. pair, rich color, detailed impression

VERY FINE AND SCARCE MINT NEVER-HINGED PAIR OF THE 2-CENT ROTARY TYPE II.

Unlike most other issues, the horizontal coil is actually scarcer than the vertical coil. It was in production for only a short period of time before being replaced by the Type III, Scott 492.

This coil is surprisingly rare in Mint N.H. condition. A review of our computerized records, which spans 20 years of our auctions, revealed only four other Mint N.H. pairs.

With copy of 1970 P.F. certificate for a strip of four (Image)
