A CHOICE USED EXAMPLE OF THE 30 CENT PERF 10 AT TOP OR BOTTOM, OF WHICH ONLY 5 HAVE BEEN CERTIFIED BY THE PHILATELIC FOUNDATION: 2 UNUSED SINGLES AND A THIRD IN A PAIR, AND ONLY 2 USED EXAMPLES, AN OFF-CENTER POSTALLY USED SINGLE WITH A THIN, AND THIS EXCEPTIONAL PRE-CANCELLED SINGLE— UNDERCATALOGUED, IN OUR OPINION, GIVEN THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST OF THE PERF 10 ON ONE SIDE VARIETIES.
Expertization: 1984 A.P.S. and 1997 P.F. Certificates.
