Lot 58
o
1870, 24¢ purple, grilled (142), cancelled in such a way that the exceptionally strong, virtually complete grill is quite clear even from the front, with color a bit stronger than is normally found on the often washed out 24¢ value. Fresh and nearly Very Fine for this.
Scott $6,500
A VERY DIFFICULT STAMP TO LOCATE IN SOUND CONDITION.
Expertization: 1956 and 2006 P.F. Certificates.
The National Bank Note Company's 24¢ grill is not known in unused condition, thus the presence of this used stamp in Little's otherwise unused collection.
