2c Black (73). Mint N.H. block of four, bright shade and detailed impression, balanced margins

VERY FINE AND CHOICE. A RARE MINT NEVER-HINGED BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 1863 2-CENT BLACK JACK.

Most blocks with Mint N.H. stamps have been broken to feed collector demand for singles. We doubt this block will remain intact for much longer.

With 2001 and 2012 P.F. certificates. Scott Retail as hinged
