30c Black (154). Original gum, lightly hinged, intense shade and proof-like impression, perfectly centered with Jumbo margins all aroundEXTREMELY FINE GEM. THE 1870 30-CENT NATIONAL UNGRILLED ISSUE IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT OF ALL BANK NOTE ISSUES TO FIND IN SOUND, WELL-CENTERED, ORIGINAL-GUM CONDITION. THIS IS THE FINEST EXAMPLE WE HAVE EVER HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF OFFERING.
During the past few years, we have offered very few superb original-gum examples of the 30c 1870 National Bank Note printing. The margins and light hinging of the example offered here are better than any we have offered.
With 1999 P.S.E. and 2001 P.F. certificates.
