THE ONLY RECORDED EXAMPLE OF THE 50¢ IMPERF BETWEEN VARIETY, EITHER USED OR UNUSED, AND, IN FACT, THE ONLY MAJOR ERROR ON ANY OF THE HIGHEST VALUE WASHINGTON-FRANKLINS. CATALOGUE VALUE IS BASED ON A 2000 AUCTION REALIZATION, AND GIVEN THIS PAIR'S UNIQUE STATUS, WOULD APPEAR TO BE EXCEEDINGLY UNDERVALUED.
Expertization: 1975, 2000 P.F. Certificates.
Provenance: Floyd
