Sale 924, Lot 37, 1879 American Bank Note Co. Issue6c Pink (186). Original gum, lightly hinged, brilliant color, choice centering for this difficult issue

EXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 6-CENT 1879 AMERICAN BANK NOTE ISSUE.

This is a difficult issue to find in such choice condition. Collectors who are waiting for a similarly-centered Mint N.H. copy are advised to consider the stamp offered here -- we have not offered a Mint N.H. single since keeping computerized records. The block of nine offered in our Sale 920 contains the only Mint N.H. stamps we have ever offered, but they are not well-centered

With 1995 and 2002 P.F. certificates
