VERY FINE AND EXTREMELY RARE MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 10-CENT 1861 ISSUE IN THE DARK GREEN SHADE. THIS IS THE FIRST WE HAVE OFFERED IN MINT NEVER-HINGED CONDITION.

The deep shade of the stamp offered here offers a dramatic contrast to the main Scott-listed Green shade, Scott 68, which is also very rare in Mint N.H. condition (only three are listed in Power Search).
