EXTREMELY FINE GEM. AN EXCEPTIONALLY CHOICE MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 2-CENT PERF 11 DOUBLE-LINE WATERMARKED ISSUE, SCOTT 519, GRADED XF-SUPERB 95 BY P.S.E. A RARE STAMP IN SUCH HIGH GRADE.
This stamp was created in 1917 when a small excess supply of the imperforate Scott 344 was returned by the New York City post office to the Bureau for credit. Rather than issue the credit, the Bureau perforated the sheets and returned them to the New York City post office for public sale.
Ex "Nathanael Greene". With 2018 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95). Only three grade higher (all at 98).
