15c Brown & Blue, Ty. I (118). Original gum, deep rich colors and clear impressions, beautiful centering for this difficult issue

VERY FINE AND CHOICE. A LOVELY ORIGINAL-GUM EXAMPLE OF THE 15-CENT TYPE I 1869 PICTORIAL ISSUE.

The 15c Type I comes from the first 1869 printing; in May 1869 the 15c went to press using the second frame plate, which produced Type II.

With 2009 P.F. certificate
