1869, 90¢ carmine & black (122), beautifully centered within incredibly generous margins with bright pastel color and a neat single "wedge" cancel struck clear of the vignette. A fresh Extremely Fine gem.

FOR A STAMP THAT IS NOTORIOUS FOR HEAVY CANCELS AND POOR CENTERING, THE EXAMPLE OFFERED HERE IS EXCEPTIONAL ON EVERY ELEMENT.
Expertization: 1981 and 2000 P.F. Certificates.
In our opinion this is the carmine rose shade, though neither certificate makes note of this fact.
