Lot 2010
High Quality Mint Collection, 1887-1954, Outstanding collection that began when the owner began adding quality mint stamps to a non-descript used collection in a Minkus All-American album. The earliest mint stamp is an XF #214 and some of the best numbers include #369, 421, 423, 456, 545-46, 547 (NH), 551-591, E6-10, J56 NH, J57, Q1-JQ5. Nealy everything is hinged but condition, outside of a tiny number of reperfs and regums, is almost never less than Very Fine, with the majority being Extremely Fine or better and with more than twenty having certificates. Also includes a few duplicates on a stock sheet. A terrific lot, with a total Scott value, for the mint only, of over $20,000.
Estimate $10,000 - 15,000
