image Documentary, 1871, Second Issue, $500 "Persian Rug". Manuscript cancel, rich vibrant color; light horizontal crease, F.-V.F. appearance, this being the earliest known usage of the $500 "Persian Rug" issue, Scott catalog value for small faults, with 2020 P.S.E. certificate.
Scott No. R133; $16,500.

A HANDSOME EXAMPLE OF THE $500.00 LARGE PERSIAN RUG WITH CONDITION FAR BETTER THAN NORMALLY ENCOUNTERED.
