15c Gray (418). Mint N.H. with part imprint top selvage, Jumbo margins and mathematically perfect centering, bright shade on post-office fresh paper

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. THIS MAGNIFICENT MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 1912 15-CENT PERF 12 SINGLE-LINE WATERMARK ISSUE HAS ACHIEVED THE ULTIMATE GRADE OF GEM 100 JUMBO. AN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING STAMP.

With 2011 P.S.E. certificate (Gem 100 Jumbo; unpriced in SMQ above the grade of 98, SMQ $3,000.00 as 98). This is one of only two stamps to achieve this illustrious grade. The other, ex Whitman, does not have imprint or plate number selvage. There are no other Scott 418's graded above 98J in any condition (Mint N.H., hinged or used).
