30c Full Black (190). Mint N.H., intense shade and sharp proof-like impression, beautifully centered with enormous margins, single perf disc at bottom rests lightly on gum

VERY FINE AND CHOICE. AN EXTRAORDINARY MINT NEVER-HINGED 30-CENT 1879 AMERICAN BANK NOTE ISSUE. THIS ISSUE IS RARELY OBTAINABLE IN CHOICE NEVER-HINGED CONDITION.

The 30c 1879 American Bank Note Company issue is surprisingly difficult to obtain in choice Mint N.H. condition. It is surprising because the 15c (Scott 189) is readily available. However, a survey of our photo records and auction library revealed the scarcity of well-centered 30c blocks from which singles could be removed. A review of Power Search found only seven other Mint N.H. singles.

With 1992 and 1998 P.F. certificates.
