90c State, "Sepcimen" Error (O67Sa). Without gum as issued, radiant color, perfs scissors-separated but intact

FINE. ONLY TWO EXAMPLES OF THE 90-CENT STATE DEPARTMENT WITH THE "SEPCIMEN" ERROR ARE RECORDED. A WONDERFUL RARITY.

Only 245 copies of the 90c State Special Printing were sold, but it is not known how the stamps were taken from the sheets or if full sheets were exhausted before breaking a subsequent sheet. If full sheets were used, then only three can possibly exist. Only two were recorded by Markovits (2004 Bennett sale), and we not know the whereabouts of the second copy. The Combs book did not record any sales.

Ex Stone, Sheriff and Markovits. With 2004 P.F. certificate
