10c Black (Scott 2). Unused (no gum), large margins to full, intense shade and proof-like impression, accompanying certificate notes “faint paper discoloration at right” which we have difficulty seeing even under magnification VERY FINE APPEARANCE. AN ATTRACTIVE UNUSED EXAMPLE OF THE 10-CENT 1847 ISSUE. The 1847 Issue is much scarcer in unused condition than other issues, because the stamps were demonetized in 1851. They could be exchanged for the new issue, but once the exchange period ended, the stamps would have no postage value. Considering the purchasing power of ten cents in 1851, it is not surprising that the stamps were either used or exchanged, rather than left for future generations of collectors. With 1991 P.F. certificate Robert Siegel Auction Galleries, Jun 2015, Sale 1106, Lot 3018 |
