$1.92 Dark Brown, 1875 Special Printing (PR48). Without gum as issued, intense color and proof-like impression on bright white paper, wide margins for this difficult issue

VERY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL AND RARE SOUND EXAMPLE OF THE 96-CENT NEWSPAPER CONTINENTAL BANK NOTE COMPANY SPECIAL PRINTING. ONLY 41 WERE SOLD.

None was offered in either the Floyd or Lessin sales, and the Lyons copy was not as well centered. This is only the fourth example we have offered since keeping computerized records.

With 2000 P.F. and 2005 P.S.E. certificates (F-VF 75; SMQ $12,000.00 as 70, $24,000.00 as 80). This stamp is the only graded example to date, and it has far better centering than most.
