Sale 1347, Lot 4284, 1867-68 Grilled Issue, 1875 Re-Issue of 1861-66 Issue

90c Blue, Re-Issue (111). Unused (no gum), deep rich color on bright paper, unusually choice centering

EXTREMELY FINE UNUSED EXAMPLE OF THE 90-CENT 1861 RE-ISSUE.

The 90c Re-Issue was printed from the original plate of 200 subjects. 10,000 stamps were printed (50 impressions). Only 317 of the 90c were sold; the remaining 9,683 were destroyed on July 16, 1884.

With 1982 P.F. and 2002 P.S.E. certificates (NG, XF-Superb 95). This is the highest grade awarded to an unused Scott 111 and it is shared by two others. The highest original-gum grade is 90. This is a perfect stamp for one who values centering over gum.

SCV $3,500.
