10c Brown, With Secret Mark (188). Original gum, lightly hinged, beautiful margins and almost perfectly centered, outstanding depth of color of bright paper and with a sharp impression

EXTREMELY FINE. AN OUTSTANDING ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 1879 10-CENT AMERICAN BANK NOTE PRINTING WITH SECRET MARK.

The 10c stamps from the American Bank Note printing (Scott Nos. 187 and 188) are notably scarce with such choice centering. The example offered here, with wide margins on all four sides, is a true condition rarity.

With 1994 P.F. certificate
