Sale 1268, Lot 341, Washington-Franklin and Panama-Pacific Issues5c Blue, Perf 12 x 10 (423C). Wide and nicely balanced margins, light cancel, couple small tears

VERY FINE APPEARING EXAMPLE OF THE RARE 1914 5-CENT WASHINGTON PERFORATED 12 x 10.

Our census of Scott 423C is available at https://siegelauctions.com/census/US/Scott/423C . For no apparent reason, the 5c has the highest percentage of faulty stamps of any of the 1914 Compound Perf issues. Of the 24 used copies in our census, seventeen are either faulty or have the perforations in on at least one side of the design.

Census no. 423C-CAN-23. Ex "Sirron".
