FINE. AN EXCEEDINGLY RARE ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF THE 1894 $5.00 UNWATERMARKED BUREAU ISSUE.
From our 1964 Rarities sale. This is the first block we have offered at auction in nine years. (Image)
FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE IMPRINT AND PLATE NUMBER STRIP OF THE 1894 $5.00 UNWATERMARKED BUREAU ISSUE. THIS ISSUE IS NOT KNOWN AS A FULL PLATE BLOCK -- AN IMPRINT AND PLATE NUMBER STRIP IS THE ONLY MULTIPLE (ASIDE FROM A BLOCK OF FOUR WITH IMPRINT ONLY) TO COME CLOSE.
The dollar values of the unwatermarked Bureau issues had the top selvage cut to accommodate the available perforating machine. Therefore, no top plate numbers exist for the dollar values in any form. (Image)
