2c Pan-American, Center Inverted (295a). Bright color and sharp vignette impression, wide margins, slightly redistributed original gum, small natural wrinkle at lower right (barely noticeable but flashes white when drying)VERY FINE ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 2-CENT PAN-AMERICAN INVERT.
A survey of the Levi records produced 64 single unused stamps (excluding the block of four and rejoined block of four). Many of these were described in auction catalogues more than 40 years ago; therefore, the determination of soundness is uncertain. However, assuming the old descriptions were reaffirmed today, approximately 45% of singles across all centering categories have faults.
With 1995 P.S.E. certificate stating "genuine unused o.g. with small natural gum bend at lower right"
