12c Black, Z. Grill (85E). Choice centering with well-balanced margins, clearly-defined grill, crisp impression nicely contrasted by red New York double-circle datestamp

EXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF THE 1868 12-CENT Z GRILL. ESPECIALLY DESIRABLE WITH THE COLORED CANCEL.

An examination of our records shows that this is one of the most difficult of the grilled issues to find in superb condition, particularly with a colored cancel. This stamp is a true condition rarity.

With 1995 P.F. certificate
