o
1869, 3¢ ultramarine, without grill (114a), rich color, three stroke pen cancel, original gum, hinge remnant. Fine.
Scott $18,000
ONE OF ONLY TWO CERTIFIED USED EXAMPLES OF THE 3¢ 1869 ON REGULAR PAPER WITHOUT GRILL. THE OTHER IS ON COVER.
Expertization: 1994 P.F. Certificate.
The Scott catalogue states in a footnote under #114 that "#114a used on normal paper (is)…. unique". the example they reference is the on cover single with a 2011 certificate (#483098). For some reason the editors missed this example. We have informed them of the omission.
