30c Agriculture, "Sepcimen" Error (O9Sa). Without
gum as issued, vivid color, wonderfully well-centered with wide margins, bright and fresh EXTREMELY FINE. THIS IS THE FINEST OF ONLY THREE RECORDED EXAMPLES OF THE 30-CENT AGRICULTURE "SEPCIMEN" ERROR. Robert Markovits recorded only three
examples of the 30c Agriculture "Sepcimen" error (2004 Bennett sale). Only 354 copies of the 30c Agriculture Special Printing were sold, but it is not known how the stamps were taken from the sheets or if full sheets were exhausted before breaking a
subsequent sheet. The ex-Sheriff and Markovits copy and the example sold in Siegel Sale 913 are not nearly as well-centered as the stamp offered here. Ex Lewenthal and pictured in Combs booklet on page 36. Signed Bloch (Image) Search for comparables at
