$2.00 Dark Blue (312). Mint N.H., deep rich color on bright white paper, almost perfect centering with wide margins all around

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A SPECTACULAR MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE $2.00 1902 ISSUE IN THE FINEST CONDITION ATTAINABLE. A TRULY REMARKABLE STAMP IN EVERY RESPECT -- CENTERING, COLOR, CLARITY OF IMPRESSION, PAPER FRESHNESS AND GUM.

When reviewing the 1902 Issue, it is clear that collecting practices and time have left very few superb Mint N.H. stamps for today's collectors. This is particularly true for the high $2.00 and $5.00 values of this series which were printed in much smaller quantities than the lower values. This superb stamp is a true condition rarity.

Ex "Scarsdale". With 2010 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95; SMQ $16,000.00). This is the highest grade awarded and it is shared by only three others. This is the first P.S.E.-graded example we have offered in this grade since we last sold this stamp in our Sale 1000 in 2010.
