6c Treasury, Soft Paper (O110). Mint N.H., gorgeous deep shade, almost perfect centering with Jumbo margins on bright paperEXTREMELY FINE GEM MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 6-CENT TREASURY SOFT PAPER ISSUE. THIS IS EASILY THE FINEST EXAMPLE WE HAVE ENCOUNTERED.
This issue is rare in Mint N.H. condition. A Power Search review found only one other example, offered in our 1998 sale of the Zoellner collection. To combine Mint N.H. gum with Jumbo margins and choice centering is exponentially more difficult.
With 1992, 2004 P.F. and 2013 P.S.E. certificates (XF 90 Jumbo. Unpriced in SMQ in Mint N.H. condition). This is the only Mint N.H. example contained in the P.S.E. Population Report
