St. Louis, Mo., 1846, 10¢ black on gray lilac (Scott 11X5), type II, position 4, margins all around, pen cancel, almost Very Fine, with 2021 P.S.A.G., P.S.E. and P.F. certificates,
The certificates on this lot are a comedy, and do not reflect well on the expertising community. All 3 certificates are from 2021. The P.S.A.G. certificate indicates that the lot is genuine, and mentions no faults. The P.S.E. certificate mentions "a small repair and part of the design drawn in in the right foot of the right bear" - none of which are visible to us, even under strong magnification. The P.F. certificate mentions "a tiny thin spot at upper left and small filled thins at lower right" - none of which are visible in fluid, and which does not match what P.S.E. reported. Go figure. At any rate, all 3 concur at least that the stamp is genuine. Scott $12,500 Suggested Bid $3,000-4,000 (Image)
