5c Orange Brown, Ty. II (30). Block of four with top selvage, original gum, barely hinged (two appear Mint N.H.), wonderful warm shade, wide margins

VERY FINE-EXTREMELY FINE. A STUNNING ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 1860 5-CENT ORANGE BROWN. THE CENTERING, COLOR AND OVERALL CONDITION OF THIS BLOCK IS TRULY REMARKABLE.

Although a relatively large number of 5c Orange Browns reached collectors from unused supplies left over after the issue was demonetized due to the Civil War, multiples are scarce, and most have been broken to feed the market's desire for singles.

With 1980 P.F. certificate
