Sale 1140, Lot 1237, Newspapers and Periodicals$2.00 Scarlet, 1895 Issue (PR108). Mint N.H., intense shade and impression on bright paper

VERY FINE AND CHOICE. A RARE MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE $2.00 1895 NEWSPAPER ISSUE. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT ISSUES TO OBTAIN IN MINT NEVER-HINGED CONDITION.

A Power Search review found only one other in Mint N.H. condition. A review of the online records of The Philatelic Foundation failed to find any additional examples.
