lot # 9 - united states 1847 issue

Saturday Dec 06, 2014 10:00 America/New_York

1847, 10¢ black (Scott 2), lightly struck black grid cancellation rarely seen on the 1847 issue, wonderfully fresh and choice completely sound example with a very elusive black postmark; while a black cancel is desirable and scarce, it usually obliterates the stamp making it undesirable, the example offered here has a light neatly placed black strike that really enhances the beauty of the stamp, Very Fine to Extremely Fine, 2013 P.F. certificate.
Scott $1,275.
Estimate $1,000 - 1,500.
