1880 30c greenish black, unused without gum as issued, exceptionally well centered with wide margins, fully intact perforations on all sides, deep rich color, fresh and v.f. example of this rare special printing, seldom seen in such condition, certainly among the finest in existence, with 1992 PSE and 2004 Philatelic Foundation certificates (a recent Siegel census identifies "46 examples, including one in the Miller collection owned by The New York Public Library, leaving 45 available to collectors. Only approximately 11 are confirmed as sound and only seven of those are well-centered. Another 16 need to be re-examined for condition, but only a handful of these have better than fine centering") cat. $22500 (Cat No. 201) (Image)
