We note that an example Graded 98J was sold at Siegel Auctions in 2019 (Sale 119, Lot 1282) for a hammer price of $6,250. In our opinion, this is a better stamp, as the Siegel copy was off center to the left. (Image1)

AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE OF THE 1893 4¢ COLUMBIAN, BLUE COLOR ERROR.

The 4¢ Columbian color error is believed to have resulted from the use of an incorrect batch of ink, and spectrographic analysis has shown that the blue ink found on the 4¢ error matches the composition of the ink used for the 1¢ stamp in the Columbian Exposition Issue. (Image1)

Scott No. 233a; $18,000.

A RARE MINT ORIGINAL GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 4¢ COLUMBIAN ERROR OF COLOR.

The 4¢ Columbian color error was a result of using the blue ink intended for the 1¢ Columbian value. At least two sheets where printed coming from plates D17 and D18 (the plate numbers from these sheets still exist) with very few examples, both mint and used, surviving from these printings.
