3c Violet, Ty. I, Coil (489). Jumbo margins and perfect centering, face-free grid cancel, Extremely Fine Gem, a huge and stunning stamp, with 2013 P.S.E. certificate (Superb 98 Jumbo; SMQ $250.00), the highest grade awarded to a used example of Scott 489 in any format and it is equaled by no others, in such cases we feel that the SMQ value is irrelevant
