50c Orange (260). Gorgeous centering with Jumbo margins, vibrant color on bright paper, neat strike of duplex cancel, Extremely Fine Gem, a stamp of unusually wide margins, Brookman notes "There are few, if any, 19th century U.S. stamps that are so difficult to find in superb used condition as this stamp. The price for commercial copies of this stamp can well be multiplied by 10 and the buyer of a superb copy of this stamp at such a price can rejoice in the fact he has a bargain!", with 1984 P.F. certificate
