5c Dark Blue (557). Mint N.H., huge Jumbo margins and extraordinarily well-centered, deep rich color on post-office fresh paper

EXTREMELY FINE GEM EXAMPLE OF THE 5-CENT 1922 ISSUE, GRADED SUPERB 98 JUMBO BY P.S.E. THIS STANDS ALONE AS THE HIGHEST GRADED EXAMPLE.

Advanced collectors of graded early 20th Century and of the 1922 Issue are familiar with the 5c Roosevelt stamp's status as one of the most difficult to find in the highest grades. Every stamp of the 1922 Issue except the 5c and the 9c has at least one example graded Gem 100 in Mint N.H. condition, and for the most part multiple examples at 98J. There are no 5c stamps graded Gem 100 and this is the only Mint N.H. 98J (the 9c has three 98J's).

With 2020 P.S.E. certificate (Superb 98 Jumbo; unpriced in SMQ above the grade of 98, SMQ $925.00 as 98)
