1c Blue, Ty. V (24). Wide and perfectly balanced
margins, pretty shade nicely complemented by bold red grid cancel EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A SUPERB JUMBO USED EXAMPLE OF THE 1857 ONE-CENT TYPE V. DESPITE THIS STAMP'S READY AVAILABILITY, IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIND IN SUCH SUPERB
CONDITION. Despite the abundant supply of Type V stamps, they are extremely difficult to obtain in higher grades. The stamp offered here has phenomenal visual appeal -- bright color, a beautiful clear red grid cancel, wide and balanced margins,
and wonderful overall freshness. Ex Dr. Morris, Dr. Puliafito and Natalee Grace. With 1991 P.F. and 2009 P.S.E. certificates (XF-Superb 95 Jumbo; SMQ $675.00 as 95, $2,500.00 as 98). Only two have graded higher and only one other shares this
desirable grade. (Image) Search for
