1c Rose (J59). Mint N.H., radiant color and crisp impression, unusually choice centering for this difficult issueEXTREMELY FINE GEM MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 1916 ONE-CENT PERF 10 UNWATERMARKED POSTAGE DUE ISSUE. THIS IS ONE OF THE FINEST EXAMPLES IN EXISTENCE.
The Perf 10 stamps were printed on unwatermarked paper for a brief time. Well-centered original-gum examples are exceedingly rare. We have offered only six other Mint N.H. examples in the past 25 years, and this is arguably the finest.
With 2015 P.F. certificate (XF 90). By way of comparison, P.S.E. has not graded any Mint N.H. examples.
