Sale 1235, Lot 1012, 1851-56 Issue (Scott 6-17)10c Green, Ty. II (14). Original gum, large even margins all around, deep rich color and sharp early impression on bright paper

EXTREMELY FINE. A VERY CHOICE ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 1855 10-CENT TYPE II IMPERFORATE.

Given the wide spacing between subjects on the plate used to print the 10c 1855 Issue, one would expect to find an ample supply of examples of Scott 14 and 15 in sound original-gum condition with four margins. However, such stamps are extremely rare.

With 2007 P.F. certificate (VF-XF 85).
