1867 GRILLED ISSUES continued...
Lot Symbol CatNo. Lot Description CV or Estimate
101 c 84 image#84, 2c Black, "D" grill, single with natural straight edge at right, tied to circular rate cover to Des Moines, Iowa by "Minneapolis/Min/Mar. 17" (1868) duplex, insurance enclosure, stamp with typical centering being just into the design at top, minor water staining to the cover, fine usage; this rare grill is exceedingly rare on cover, much more so than the modest premium given for an on-cover usage, most "D" grills were not discovered until they were removed from the cover; this is one of the few examples that has a well impressed grill that is easily discernable from the face and therefore remains on the cover; 1988 PSE certificate. (Image) $4,750.00

SOLD for $1,100.00
Will close during Public Auction

104 og 86 image#86, 1c Blue, "E" grill, an extraordinary mint example of this very scarce grilled stamp, possessing overall physical characteristics which are largely unheard of on any of the grilled issues, let alone this particularly difficult stamp, featuring an extraordinary overall freshness, with gorgeous bright color and a strong impression on immaculate paper, marvelously well centered amid large margins, pristine full o.g. that has been very lightly hinged, extremely fine; a remarkable condition rarity for the finest collection; 2004 PF certificate.
