73 ogbl Image5c Brown, Ty. II (30A). Block of four, original gum, lightly hinged, deep rich color and proof-like impression, top left stamp trivial short perf

VERY FINE-EXTREMELY FINE. A RARE AND DESIRABLE ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 1860 5-CENT TYPE II BROWN.

The 5c Brown Type II is far rarer in multiples than the Orange Brown. Unlike the 1861 Orange Brown, the earlier printing in Brown was not left in Southern post offices when the issue was demonetized in August 1861. Prior to the discovery of the block of 20 in the Frelinghuysen collection, the largest recorded multiple was a block of nine. A horizontal block of six is also known (creased thru bottom three stamps) as are approximately a half-dozen blocks of four. This is certainly one of the finest of the existing blocks of any size.

74 og Image10c Green, Ty. I (31). Position 93L1, original gum, hinge marks, deep rich color and proof-like impression, virtually intact perforations at left and bottom which preserve the full shell at bottom right (the defining charcteristic of Type I)

VERY FINE. AN EXTREMELY RARE SOUND ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 1857 10-CENT TYPE I PERFORATED ISSUE.

Type I characteristics are only found on the 20 stamps that comprise the bottom row of the plate. Due to narrow spacing on the plate and difficulties in aligning the perforating machine, stamps at the bottom of the plate usually have perforations cutting into the bottom portion of the design. This is a negative, because Type I is defined as having the design complete at bottom. The population of stamps available to collectors showing the type characteristics is extremely limited, especially when other factors such as gum and soundness are taken into consideration. The example offered here, in sound condition and showing the design characteristics, is extremely desirable.

76 og Image10c Green, Ty. III (33). Original gum, wonderfully well-centered with wide margins, rich color

EXTREMELY FINE. ONE OF THE FINEST KNOWN ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLES OF THE 1857 10-CENT GREEN TYPE III PERFORATED ISSUE FROM PLATE ONE. A SPECTACULAR STAMP IN TERMS OF CENTERING, COLOR, IMPRESSION AND ORIGINAL GUM.

The first perforated 10c stamps produced by Toppan Carpenter from sheets printed from Plate 1 are notorious among collectors for their poor centering. They are also very scarce in original-gum condition because, unlike 10c Plate 2 stamps (Scott 35), there were no supplies on hand in 1861 when the issue was demonetized due to the outbreak of the Civil War.

77 nh Image10c Green, Ty. IV (34). Position 86L1, recut at top, Mint Never Hinged, intense shade and proof-like impression, wide margins with perfs clear all around, single faintly toned perf tip at bottom mentioned only for complete accuracy and not noted on certificate

EXTREMELY FINE. ONE OF THE RAREST OF ALL 19TH CENTURY UNITED STATES STAMPS THAT EXIST IN MINT NEVER-HINGED CONDITION AND THE FINEST OF THE FEW ORIGINAL-GUM 1857 10-CENT TYPE IV STAMPS EXTANT.

The 1857 10c Type IV stamps come from eight positions scattered throughout Plate 1 that have the top, bottom or both lines recut. Only 4% of all 10c Plate 1 stamps produced were Type IV's, and an even smaller percentage was issued with perforations. Except for a few blocks containing Type IV positions, original-gum examples are exceedingly rare. We know of one other Extremely Fine original-gum single, ex "Ambassador" (Siegel Sale 300), but it is hinged. To the best of our knowledge, this Mint Never-Hinged example is unique in terms of condition and grade.
