Sale 1359, Lot 308, 1870-93 Bank Note Issues

6c Brown Red (224). Mint N.H., Jumbo margins and precise centering, deep rich color on post-office fresh paper

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A SPECTACULAR MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 6-CENT 1890 ISSUE, GRADED SUPERB 98 JUMBO BY P.S.E. — THIS IS THE HIGHEST P.S.E. GRADE WITH THE JUMBO APPELLATION. ONLY ONE STAMP GRADES HIGHER.

With 2016 P.S.E. certificate (Superb 98 Jumbo). This is the only example at this lofty grade, with just one higher (at Gem 100, offered in Sale 1061, lot 3652). While that Gem 100 is also truly superb, the Jumbo margins of this 98J stand out dramatically.
