Columbian Issue
Lot Sym. Lot Description  
110   4c Columbian, Error of Color (233a).> Beautiful deep rich color, light strike of duplex circular datestamp, faint diagonal crease at top left<><>^FINE APPEARANCE. ONLY THIRTEEN USED EXAMPLES OF THE 4-CENT COLUMBIAN ERROR OF COLOR HAVE BEEN CERTIFIE4c Columbian, Error of Color (233a). Beautiful deep rich color, light strike of duplex circular datestamp, faint diagonal crease at top left

FINE APPEARANCE. ONLY THIRTEEN USED EXAMPLES OF THE 4-CENT COLUMBIAN ERROR OF COLOR HAVE BEEN CERTIFIED BY THE PHILATELIC FOUNDATION. ONE OF THE GREAT RARITIES OF USED UNITED STATES STAMPS.

Only four of the thirteen are sound, and two of the sound copies have not been re-examined for faults since the 1940's. Therefore, the number of sound copies may actually be less than four, and may only be two. Most of the used examples are also off-center to some degree, with eight having the perforations either close or touching on at least one side. In the last seven years, this is only the fifth used example of this rarity we have handled.

Unpublished Census No. 233a-CAN-09. Ex Lake Shore. With 1979 Friedl and 1997 P.F. certificates. In our opinion, this is undercatalogued in Scott given its rarity compared to unused copies. (Image)
