849 R103a imageDocumentary, 1871, Second Issue, 1¢ blue & black, center inverted (Scott R103a), a lovely mint example, remarkably fresh and exceptionally well centered with disturbed original gum; accompanying certificate notes a "faint thin" at the top, which, frankly, we can't even see, otherwise an Extremely Fine gem, ex "World Traveller" Collection, with a 2019 P.F. certificate.

The Philatelic Foundation has certified only one other unused example, that one being without gum. (Image) (Image2)
