24c Gray Lilac (37).
Original gum, lightly hinged, incredibly well-centered with wide margins at
sides and perforations clear at top and bottom, deep rich color and fine
impressionEXTREMELY FINE GEM. A SUPERB ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 24-CENT GRAY LILAC WITH REMARKABLY CHOICE CENTERING. Collectors looking for Gem quality stamps (unused and used) from the 1857 perforated issue know that one of the most difficult denominations to obtain is the 24c value. The margins are often narrow, with the design almost always touched (if not in) at top and/or bottom. The example offered here, perfectly centered with clear and well-balanced margins all around and lightly hinged, is a true condition rarity. With 2000 P.F. certificate (Image) |
