Lot 1108
1869, 1¢ buff (112), virtually perfectly centered. Never hinged. Extremely Fine and choice.
Scott $825 for hinged
CHOICE NEVER HINGED EXAMPLES OF THE 1¢ PICTORIAL ARE SURPRISINGLY DIFFICULT TO FIND AND THIS ONE IS AMONG THE MOST OUTSTANDING WE HAVE ENCOUNTERED.
Expertization: 2000 P.F. Certificate.
A survey of the Ishikawa, Rose and Lafayette collections, the last undoubtedly the greatest collection ever formed of the 1869 issue, does not yield any comparable example in terms of quality.
