Sale 1118, Lot 212, 1901 Pan-American Issue Inverts2c Pan-American, Center Inverted (295a). Large part original gum, h.r. described on accompanying certificate as "o.g.", rich color, choice centering, light crease at top left not touching design

VERY FINE APPEARING 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 1951 P.F. certificate
