1c Rose (J59). Original gum, barely hinged, fresh color on bright paper with full perfs all around, choice centering with wide marginsEXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL LIGHTLY-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE ONE-CENT PERF 10 UNWATERMARKED POSTAGE DUE ISSUE, SCOTT J59.
The unwatermarked 1c and 2c Perf 10 Postage Due stamps (Scott J59 and J60) were only in production for a short period of time before being replaced by the Perf 11 stamps. Well-centered original-gum examples, particularly of the 1c are exceedingly rare.
