1861-1866 Issues
Lot Symbol CatNo. Lot Description CV or Estimate
1063 og 64 image#64, 3c Pink, an incredibly choice example of this exceedingly rare mint 19th century stamp, being in a quality quite unlike the vast majority of the small number of known mint copies, possessing a marvelous overall freshness, rich unmistakable Pink color, exceptionally well centered within large margins, pristine full o.g. which shows just the barest trace of hinging (if at all), accompanying certificate inexplicably calls the stamp "slightly toned" with which we respectfully disagree, otherwise extremely fine; 1971 PF certificate; ex-Chapin.

1065 nhPB 65 #65, 3c Rose, an absolutely superb bottom left corner sheet-margin imprint and plate "No. 52" block of fourteen (7x2), in a quality that is almost unimaginable for any multiple from this period, let alone a rare plate number block, possessing true "post office" freshness and crispness, with rich luxuriant color and a well incised impression, the centering throughout the multiple is quite remarkable, with nearly every stamp being virtually perfectly centered, pristine o.g., never hinged, there are a couple of sensibly rejoined perf. separations in the bottom right margin barely worth mentioning, extremely fine; unquestionably the finest plate block of Scott #65 known; 1992 PF certificate; ex-Anderson.

1067 og 68a image#68a, 10c Dark green, a remarkably choice mint example of this surprisingly difficult and, in our opinion, undercataloged stamp, being in a quality far superior to most, incredibly fresh and crisp, with the most intense color and impression imaginable in a dark green shade, wonderfully well centered within large margins, particularly clean full o.g. that has been lightly hinged only once, extremely fine for this; far more rare in this condition than many collectors realize; 2002 PF certificate.

SOLD for $1,275.00
Closing..Oct-17, 12:00 PM

1070 og 70c image#70c, 24c Violet on thin paper, an immensely rare mint example of this distinctive and often misidentified shade, with lovely rich color and a strong characteristic impression, while centered to the bottom left, this is actually much better centering than most of the few other mint examples known to us, nearly full original gum (certificate states "part o.g."), minor h.r., tiny perf. thin at top left, very fine appearance; 2001 PF certificate.
