Sale 1199, Lot 1089, 5c-30c 1857-60 Issue (Scott 27-38)10c Green, Ty. V (35). Choice centering with wide margins, rich color, green grid cancel, Extremely Fine Gem, a phenomenal stamp and extremely rare with a green cancel, with 2007 P.S.E. certificate (VF-XF 85; SMQ $115.00), we are sure the grade does not adequately account for the rarity of the cancel -- Scott assigns a $225.00 premium for the green cancel, but we do not recall seeing another
