Sale 930, Lot 1569, 1857-60 Issue (Scott 18-39)10c Green, Ty. I (31). Position 95R1, original gum, small gum disturbance in top right corner, otherwise full intact gum, fresh color, perfs just in at top

VERY GOOD. A RARE ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 1857 PERFORATED 10-CENT TYPE I.

The scarcer types of the perforated 10c 1857 are rarely found with original gum. Although the perfs cut in at top, this Type I stamp has a wide bottom margin which clearly shows the type characteristics.
