15c Olive Green (284). Top imprint and plate no. 264 block of six with wide selvage, original gum, lightly hinged, rich color on bright paper, few expertly reinforced perf separations in top selvage only

VERY FINE. A RARE PLATE BLOCK OF THE 1898 15-CENT BUREAU ISSUE FROM THE DESIRABLE TOP PLATE POSITION. AN EXTREMELY DIFFICULT PLATE BLOCK TO FIND WITH WIDE TOP SELVAGE.

A review using Power Search found only one other from the top position offered in our sales of the past 18 years. That one has perfs touching at top on all stamps. We have never offered one in Mint N.H. condition.
