5c Blue, Coil (317). Lightly hinged, deep rich color and proof-like impression, wide margins

VERY FINE AND CHOICE SINGLE OF THE 1908 5-CENT VERTICAL COIL, SCOTT 317.

The 5c 1908 Coil stamps, which were stripped by hand, are almost always strongly centered to one side. It is surprisingly scarce as a single -- most are still part of pairs.

With copy of 1982 P.F. certificate for strip of four
