Sale 937, Lot 264, Washington-Franklin and Commemorative Issues$2.00 Orange Red & Black (523). Mint N.H., beautiful centering with Jumbo margins, brilliant colors on crisp paper

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A HUGE MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE $2.00 ORANGE RED & BLACK 1918 FRANKLIN ISSUE, WHICH HAS BEEN AWARDED THE GRADE OF XF-SUPERB 95 JUMBO BY P.S.E

With 1997 and 2007 P.S.E. certificates (XF-Superb 95 Jumbo; SMQ $4,650.00 as 95, $9,000.00 as 98). Only two have been awarded this grade, and only three have graded higher to date (in our opinion, this stamp deserves a Superb 98 grade without the Jumbo appellation).
