1c Buff (112). Well-centered, spectacular bold green quartered cork cancel

EXTREMELY FINE AND RARE. THIS IS THE BOLDEST GREEN CANCEL WE HAVE ENCOUNTERED ON A ONE-CENT 1869 PICTORIAL.

A Power Search review reveals many Scott 112s with green cancels, but none are as clearly struck and in this bright color.

Ex Dr. Morris and "Golden Oak". With 1986, 1994 and 2018 P.F. certificates
