2c Carmine (554). Mint N.H. top plate no. 16787
block of six with 6-point star and full selvage, brilliant color, post-office fresh and intact VERY FINE AND CHOICE MINT NEVER-HINGED TOP PLATE BLOCK OF THE 2-CENT 1923 ISSUE WITH 6-POINT STAR. In an attempt to improve centering, the
Bureau began using plates with wider spacing between the stamps. However, to take advantage of this, they had to modify some of the perforating machines. Stars were added to some of the wider-spaced plates for rapid identification of those sheets
bound for the modified perforating machines. At first, a small 5-point star was used, then a large 6-point star and, finally, a large 5-point star. The latter is common, but the other two are very scarce. With 2004 P.F. certificate (Image) Search for comparables at
