1c Green & Black, Pan-American, Center Inverted (294a). Original gum, lightly hinged, deep rich colors and choice centeringVERY FINE ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE ONE-CENT PAN-AMERICAN INVERT.
According to Johl, the 1c Pan-American Inverts were found in at least four different post offices around the country soon after release of the issue in May 1901, including Bessemer Ala., Richmond Va., Utica N.Y. and Connecticut. This is a desirable sound and centered original-gum example.
With 1996 P.F. and 2021 P.S.E. certificates (OGph, F-VF 75; SMQ $9,500.00). We feel this is a very conservative grade and we feel the stamp is easily VF 80.
