In our opinion, the catalogue value for this stamp is not commensurate with its rarity. There was only one printing of the 6c of this series, and only 9,705 stamps were issued. The following figures for the other rare values of the set proves our point: 36c (PR97)--9,935 issued--cat. $13,500, 96c (PR99)--7,827 issued--cat. $15,000, $3.00 (PR100)--9,215 issued--cat. $18,000, $6.00 (PR101)--5,250 issued--cat. $50,000. In comparison, the 6c, with just 9,705 issued, has a catalogue value of $3,000.

The high-denomination 1894 Unwatermarked Bureau issues are extremely rare and often plagued with poor centering and faults. If a "condition census" for PR96 were compiled we believe this stamp would rank among the finest two or three, if not the finest.
