1c Blue, Ty. IIIa (22). Plate 4, double transfer, deep rich color and proof-like impression on bright paper, unusually choice centering, neat strike of circular datestamp

EXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF THE 1857 PERFORATED ONE-CENT TYPE IIIa.

This stamp shows a clear break at top and a complete outer line at bottom. Due to the narrow spacing, the type characteristics are not always as clearly visible as in the example offered here.

With 2012 P.S.E. certificate (XF 90; SMQ $5,600.00)
