Sale 1362, Lot 1847, 1916-19 Issues (Scott 481-497)

3c Violet, Ty. I, Coil (489). Mint N.H. joint line pair, wide margins and excellent centering, pastel color, Extremely Fine Gem, with 2009 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95), this is the highest grade awarded to a joint line pair and it is shared by only five others, P.S.E. does not even price this issue at a grade higher than 95, and based on the past two realizations for 95 grades ($1,000 and $1,700 hammer) we feel  SMQ value does not adequately convey its rarity in this condition
