Sale 1231, Lot 111, 1867-68 Grilled Issue (Scott 79-101)90c Blue, F. Grill (101). Wide margins, rich color complemented by red circular segmented cork cancel

VERY FINE AND CHOICE EXAMPLE OF THE 1868 90-CENT F GRILL CANCELLED IN RED.

The 90c stamps used to make grilled issues were printed on a thick stock of paper, resulting in stamps with poorly punched perforations and also generally bad centering. This beautiful stamp cancelled in red is a notable exception
