10c Yellow Green (68). Essentially perfect centering with wide margins, bright color on fresh paper, grid cancel struck at lower left corner leaves design completely visible

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THE 10-CENT 1861 ISSUE WHICH HAS BEEN GRADED SUPERB 98 BY P.S.E.

Despite the high production numbers for the 10c Ty. II issue, this is a very difficult denomination to obtain in superb quality. Of the 147 used copies sent to P.S.E. for grading, only three have graded 98 or above: the stamp offered here, one other at 98 and the 100J from our Natalie Grace sale (Sale 1024, lot 112, realized $7,500 hammer).

With 1989 P.F. and 2003 P.S.E. certificates (Superb 98; SMQ $2,750.00)
