 #29, 5c Brown, Ty. I, a very rare mint example
that is uncommonly well centered and margined, lovely rich color and an
excellent clarity of impression, full clean original gum, lightly hinged,
very fine and choice; the 1859 Five Cent Brown Type I is one of the most
underrated 19th century stamps to find with original gum, as it is missing
from even the most advanced collections of mint United States stamps; 1994
and 2004 PF certificates, and a 2005 PSE certificate; ex-Gilbert. (Image) |

 #30A, 5c Brown, Ty. II, a highly desirable mint
example of this very scarce classic stamp, being exceptionally well
centered within much larger margins than typically found on this narrowly
spaced stamp, strikingly deep color and a razor-sharp impression, full
o.g., lightly hinged, extremely fine; because this stamp was not
remaindered (unlike its Orange brown counterpart), mint examples are seldom
encountered, and only a tiny fraction of these are found in the outstanding
condition of this stamp; 2005 PF certificate.

 #36, 12c Black, plate I, much better centering
than typically found on this terribly difficult stamp, strong color, full
o.g., lightly hinged, choice very fine; the Twelve Cent Type I stamp is far
more elusive to find in premium condition than its Ty. II counterpart
(#36b); 1989 PF certificate. (Image) |

original gum; 2004 PF certificate. (Image) |

 #39, 90c Blue, exceedingly well centered amid

razor-sharp impression, full o.g., lightly hinged, an extremely fine gem;
premium quality Ninety Cent 1860 Issues, especially with full original gum,
are extraordinarily difficult to find; 2000 PF certificate;
ex-Gilbert. (Image) |

 #41, 3c Scarlet reprint, without gum as issued, a
gem example of this very scarce and perennially difficult reprint,

poorly centered many of these can come, with much larger margins than
usual, strong vibrant color and a crisp impression on bright paper,
extremely fine; among the finest available of the 479 sold; 2003 PF
certificate. (Image) |

 #45, 24c Blackish violet reprint, without gum as
issued, exceptionally well centered within lavishly large margins, with its
perforations well clearing the design all around which is a most uncommon
occurrence, deep prooflike color and impression on clean white paper,
extremely fine; among the very finest of the 479 sold, in fact this
is currently the highest graded example in the PSE population report (and
the only one to grade a 90); 2002 PF certificate and a 2005 PSE certificate
(XF 90; SMQ $8,800.00); ex-Gilbert.

 #46, 30c Yellow orange reprint, without gum as
issued, a highly select example of this rare and difficult reprint,
possessing about as perfect centering as is possible on this typically
tightly margined stamp, intense color that is both vibrant and rich, plus
its impression is much stronger than usual, extremely fine; a terribly
difficult stamp to find this choice; 2004 PSE certificate; ex-Menjou,
Chapin. (Image) |
