2077   imageHigh Value Plate Block Collection, 1887-1998, carefully mounted into three Scott Plate Block albums, along with a small accordion file full of better plate blocks which were stored in the vault.

The regular issues continue to 1998, commemorative issues go until 1957 and airmail issues continue to 1993. Highlights consist of: 214 large plate block of 12 with PF certificate, 230 plate and letter MM block of 8, 231 plate block of 6, 232 plate and letter L block of 8, 234 corner plate and letter B block of 10, 235 plate and letter Z block of 8, PF certificate, 285-86 corner margin blocks of 6 with plate number, 272 plate block of 6, 280b plate block of 6, 294 plate and arrow block of 12, 295 plate block of 6, 300 plate block of 6, 306 plate block of 10, 319 plate block, 319c plate block, 323-24 plate blocks of 6, 325-26 plate blocks of 4, 328 plate block of 6, 329 plate block of 6 with PF certificate, 343-45 plate blocks of 6, 347 plate block of 6, 367 star plate block of 6, 368 (2) plate number and star blocks of 6, 370-73 plate blocks of 6, 376 (2) plate blocks of 6, 383 star plate block, 397-98 plate blocks of 6, 401 plate block of 6, 408-9, 417 plate block of 6 with PF certificate, 424 Coil Stamps plate block of 10, 425-26, 432, 433, 435, 463, 464 with APS certificate, 481-83, 501, 504, 507-8, 512-13, 518, 524 single, 525, 527, 528-30, 531-34, 535, 536, 537, 538, 540, 543, 548-50, 551-56, 558-59, 561-68, 571-72, 575-77, 579 star and plate block of 4, 583-88, 590, 591, 595 star and plate block of 4, 610-12, 614-19 plate blocks of 6, 620 plate block of 12, 621 plate block of 8, 622-23, 627-29, 646-48, 630 souvenir sheet, 635-42, 643-45, 649-50, 654-55, 657, 658-665, 666 with PF certifiicate, 667-68, 669-73, 675-78, 679 with PF certificate, 680-83, 688-90, 692-701, 704-15 plate block set, 718-19, 740-49, 756-65, 785-93, 803-34, 859-93, 1053, C1 arrow and plate block of 6, C2 arrow and plate block of 6, C3 plate block of 12 with two tops, C4-C6, C7-12, C16-17, C18, C19-31, QE1a-QE4, PN1-18 and S1-4.

2078   image"King Coil" Treasure Trove of Mint & Used Plate Number Coils, 1981-96, When the coil from the Flag & Anthem series was issued in 1981 bearing a plate number in the bottom center portion of the stamp, a new collecting area in modern U.S. philately had been born. The consignor of this lot must have been a true aficionado of this collecting niche, because we have them in every shape and form - mint & used singles, strips of 3, 5, 7 or more as well as partial rolls, on cover including FDCs, precancels, test stamps, CVPs, officials, and highly specialized too, with tagging, plate and gum varieties, some of which are not even listed in the Scott Specialized. There are albums, stockbooks, and counter books, all with PNCs by the thousands. And yes, plate 6 of #1891 is here as a used single and strip of three. So are mint plates 1-5 as PNC3s and many other higher-priced items. What is also striking about this particular lot is the amount of used stamps; although mostly mint, the sheer volume of the more elusive used, especially in strips of three is quite impressive. We will try and show you as much as we can, but we highly recommend checking this out in person. Gargantuan catalogue value as well as a huge amount of face, Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 74.8 lbs.
