3c Rose, Ty. I (25). Original gum, rich color, detailed impression showing the beautifully detailed lathework, well-balanced margins for this difficult issue, completely intact perforations at bottom incl. part of adjoining stamp

EXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 3-CENT TYPE I 1857 ISSUE.

This stamp is especially desirable because the outer framelines, the defining element of Type I, are visible all around. It is also exceedingly fresh, which is a very rare attribute for this issue.

With 1998 and 2007 P.F. certificates
