6c Red Orange, Bluish (362). Rich color on nicely blued paper, two light strikes of mute oval cancel, small thin spot at right in area of watermark is barely noticeable

FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE USED EXAMPLE OF THE 1909 6-CENT ON BLUISH PAPER. ONLY TEN ARE KNOWN USED, AND OF THESE PERHAPS THREE ARE SOUND. A GREAT RARITY.

Our census of Scott 362 used, illustrated below and available at our website at http://siegelauctions.com/dynamic/census/362/362.pdf , illustrates the ten used examples of Scott 361 certified as genuine. Three additional copies are certified with either non-contemporary cancels or decline opinion, leaving only ten undisputedly genuine copies. Of these ten only four are sound or potentially sound, and only two are well-centered. They are difficult to find in any condition -- only two used copies are contained in Power Search.

Census No. 362-CAN-01. With 1975 P.F. certificate.
