30c Blue & Carmine, Re-Issue (131). Unused with gum that is original in our opinion -- most recent P.S.E. certificate states regummed, but the gum is the crackly type found on 1869 Re-Issues and the prior P.F. certificate states original gum -- beautiful color and proof-like impressions on bright paper, almost perfect centering with wide margins all around, Extremely Fine Gem, with 2001 P.F. (as original gum) and 2017 P.S.E. certificates, Scott Retail as no gum
