7c War, "Sepcimen" Error (O87Sa). Without gum as issued, rich color, three wide margins, in at top, light horizontal crease and few ink stained perfs at top

FINE APPEARING AND RARE EXAMPLE OF THE 7-CENT WAR DEPARTMENT SPECIAL PRINTING WITH THE "SEPCIMEN" OVERPRINT ERROR.

Only 539 copies of the 7c War 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 seven can possibly exist (five or six from sheets plus the Framingham Find example). Perhaps two or three are known. None was offered in the Combs, Sheriff or Markovits sales and this is the only example contained in Power Search or the online records of the P.F.

From the Framingham Find and ex Dr. Lobdell. With 2010 P.F. certificate
