2c Black, D. Grill (84). Clear grill, bold strike of blue segmented circle cancel, when we last offered this stamp in our 2021 sale of the Petersen collection we mentioned the faintest hint of a corner crease at bottom right, which is not noted on the new P.F. certificate obtained after that sale, appears Fine, a Power Search review of Scott 84 with blue cancels reveals that this is the most distinctively cancelled stamp we have offered, ex Petersen, with clear 1968 and 2021 P.F. certificates
