Population Report lists only this single example without gum at VF 80 with none higher, there are three original-gum examples graded higher (highest is 95), but that is the extent of the better graded unused population (Image)

103   Image24c Purple, H. Grill (142). Easily discernible grill points, bold strike of blue cork cancel, bright shade, choice centering for this difficult issue

VERY FINE. A GORGEOUS USED EXAMPLE OF THE 1870 24-CENT NATIONAL BANK NOTE COMPANY GRILLED ISSUE. ESPECIALLY RARE WITH A PROMINENT BLUE CANCEL.

A Power Search review reveals how rare the 24c Grilled Issue is with a blue cancel. We have offered only two other examples since 1993 and in all our Rarities sales since 1964.

Ex Senchuk and "Golden Oak." With 1999, 2014 P.F. (VF-XF 85) and 2009 P.S.E. certificates (F-VF 75; SMQ $5,750.00 for normal cancel). In our opinion P.S.E. undergraded this stamp. The P.F.'s grade of 85 is much more representative of the centering, color, grill, cancel and overall desirability of this stamp (Image)
