image 1916, 2¢ carmine, type II, horizontal coil. Line pair, Rock Island duplex cancel, brilliant color, well centered, faint diagonal crease barely visible from reverse only, Very Fine appearance, with 2018 P.F. certificate.
Scott No. 491; $20,000.

AN ATTRACTIVE USED EXAMPLE OF THE 1916 2¢ TYPE II HORIZONTAL LINE PAIR COIL - A GREAT RARITY WITH TEN EXAMPLES RECORDED.

Of the ten certified examples, three are known in multiples larger than pairs. Out of these seven pairs, two are faulty and one has a machine cancel which has been called into question. This leaves four sound line pairs which most of these have heavy or detracting cancellations. This example, although bearing a hidden fault, certainly is one of the most attractive that one can obtain.
