Sale 1315, Lot 5442, 1912-23 Issues (Scott 405-497)

1c Green, Coil (448). Mint N.H. joint line pair, exceptional centering and rich color

extremely fine gem. a superb mint never-hinged joint line pair of the one-cent 1915 rotary press vertical coil, graded xf-superb 95 -- the highest grade awarded.

With 2006 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95). Collectors lulled into the belief that this fairly common rotary press coil can be found in abundance in the higher grades should take note -- this 95 is the highest grade awarded to a Mint N.H. joint line pair and it is shared by only one other.
