30c Yellow Orange, Reprint (46). Without gum as issued, intense shade and detailed impression, choice centering for this narrowly spaced issue

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF THE 30-CENT 1860 REPRINT. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT VALUES TO OBTAIN WITH SUCH CHOICE CENTERING. THIS IS ONE OF THE FINEST WE HAVE EVER OFFERED.

The Continental Bank Note Company reprinted the 30c stamp from the original plate of 200 subjects. 10,000 were printed (50 impressions). Only 480 were sold; the remaining 9,520 were destroyed on July 23, 1884, by order of the Postmaster General.

Ex "Hanover". With 1972, 1989 and 2005 P.F. certificates
