10c Columbian (237). Mint N.H. bottom imprint, plate no. 99 and letter "Y" at left block of eight, deep rich color and sharp proof-like impression, unusually choice centering throughout

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A MAGNIFICENT MINT NEVER-HINGED PLATE BLOCK OF THE 10-CENT COLUMBIAN ISSUE IN THE FINEST CONDITION ATTAINABLE.

Prior to our dispersal of the huge MLG plate block collection in 2009, we had offered only two other Mint N.H. plate blocks of eight (as well as one plate block of six and one plate block of ten) since 1993. The MLG collection contained five, including the example offered here, which skewed all previous statistics. However, this plate block stands far above any other we have ever offered in terms of overall quality.

Ex MLG. With 2012 P.F. certificate
