175 og 91 image#91, 15c Black, "E" grill, the mint example offered here of this exceedingly rare stamp is, without question, one of the very finest original gum Fifteen Cent "E" grills in existence, as this stamp is the beneficiary of numerous physical attributes that are rarely associated with this terribly difficult issue, including enormously large margins all around, which are unmatched in size by any other #91 we have seen (mint or used), and being fabulously well centered within these impressive margins, additionally it possesses a remarkable overall freshness and crispness, with prooflike color and impression on immaculate paper, even its reverse is out of the ordinary, featuring pristine full o.g. that has been very lightly hinged, an extremely fine gem whose equal we have never seen; a exciting condition rarity for the finest collection; 1997 PF certificate.
