Most Type VII stamps were used by private vending and affixing-machine companies. However, unlike Scott 314A and 482A, a small supply of the imperforate 2c Type VII stamps did reach the public.
With 2008 P.S.E. certificate (Superb 98; SMQ $5,750.00). Only one has graded higher (at 100) and only two others share this desirable grade. This is the only example graded higher than 95 we have offered in our auctions.
