10c Green, Ty. I (13). Position 91R1, huge margins to full including bottom left corner inter-pane margins, brilliant color on crisp paper which is nicely complemented by an unobtrusive strike of red grid cancel, trace of black cancel at lower left

EXTREMELY FINE AND VERY RARE CORNER-MARGIN COPY OF THE 1855 10-CENT TYPE I IMPERFORATE.

The 10c Type I stamps only come from the 20 bottom-row positions of Plate 1. One would expect to find more copies with the bottom sheet margin intact, but this is rarely the case. When the sheet margin is present, it usually has a corner crease or handling flaw. The example offered here, with large corner margins and in completely sound condition, is a spectacular exception to the rule.

With 2000 P.F. and 2011 P.S.E. certificates.
