 24c Steel Blue (70b). Original gum, lightly
hinged, well-centered with full perforationsVERY FINE AND CHOICE. AN EXTREMELY RARE SOUND, ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 1861 24-CENT STEEL BLUE. The Steel Blue is the most distinctive of all the 24c shades. Unlike some of the others, it is
rarely mistaken or misidentified, and as such has always been a favorite of collectors. Examples with original gum are rare, and those with Very Fine or Extremely Fine centering are of tremendous rarity, probably numbering no more than a dozen, and
some of those have faults. With 2001 P.F. certificate (Image) Search for comparables at SiegelAuctions.com
