1903, $5 dark green (313), flawless centering, deep color and prooflike impression on remarkably bright paper. Light face-free cancel. A choice Extremely Fine gem.
Scott $750
Expertization: 1985 P.F. Certificate.
This scarce $5 stamp is normally found heavily cancelled as it was most frequently used on parcels. To find one that is lightly cancelled is difficult, but to find a lightly cancelled example that is beautifully centered and incredibly fresh is virtually unheard of. This is a true condition rarity.
