 12c Black (17). Original gum, lightly hinged, large margins to ample at sides, intense shade and proof-like impressionVERY FINE AND CHOICE. A BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 12-CENT 1851
ISSUE. SCARCE IN SUCH WONDERFUL CONDITION. As multiples demonstrate, the spacing between stamps on the plate was very narrow. Sound original-gum examples with four margins are great rarities, and most have been harvested from larger multiples. A
search of our computerized records found very few sound original-gum examples with four margins such as the example offered here. With 2002 P.F. certificate (Image) Search for comparables at SiegelAuctions.com |
