PSE 95
24c Gray (37a). Darker shade and sharper impression than the normal shade, choice centering for this difficult issue with well-proportioned margins and perforations clear of outer projections on all sides, neat strike of circular datestamp cancelEXTREMELY FINE GEM. A STUNNING USED EXAMPLE OF THE 1860 24-CENT IN THE DISTINCT GRAY SUB-SHADE. THIS SHADE IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN IN SUCH SUPERB CONDITION.
In our opinion the 24c 1860 Issue in the Gray shade is considerably scarcer than the main shade listing and deserves a higher catalogue value. The P.S.E. Population Report contains more than 170 copies of the basic shade of Scott No. 37 versus only 38 in all categories for the Gray shade.
With 2013 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95; SMQ $4,000.00). This is the highest grade awarded and only two others share it.
