2c Carmine, Ty. II, Coil (491). Pair, lightly hinged, rich color, well-centered

VERY FINE AND CHOICE PAIR OF THE RARE 2-CENT TYPE II PERF 10 HORIZONTAL COIL ON UNWATERMARKED PAPER.

Scott 491 was in production for only a short period of time before being replaced by the Ty. III, Scott 492. Unlike most other issues, the horizontal coil is actually scarcer than the vertical coil.

With copy of 1988 P.F. certificate for strip of four and 2004 P.F. certificate as pair
