Lot Sym. Lot Description  
2137 og Image1c Blue, Ty. Ib (5A). Position 6R1E, original gum, large margins to just in at bottom including top sheet margin, bright color, faults including creases and part of design painted in at bottom right

FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 1851 ONE-CENT TYPE Ib IMPERFORATE ISSUE. THIS IS WITHOUT QUESTION ONE OF THE RAREST OF ALL UNITED STATES CLASSICS TO OBTAIN IN UNUSED CONDITION.

Type Ib was produced only as an imperforate stamp. Six positions on Plate 1 Early furnished stamps qualifying as Type Ib--Positions 3-6R and 8-9R--distinguished by the complete design at top and nearly complete design at bottom. When first entered on the plate, these six positions (as well as 7R1E) had the complete design at top and bottom. However, unlike 7R, small portions of the bottoms were burnished away.

Apart from seven examples contained in multiples, there are perhaps a half-dozen unused singles.

With 2011 P.S.A.G. certificate. Scott value $45,000.00 (Image)
