$2.00 Dark Blue (Scott 312). Mint N.H., deep rich color and proof-like impression, beautiful centering with wide and balanced margins EXTREMELY FINE GEM. THIS STUNNING MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE $2.00 1902 ISSUE HAS BEEN GRADED XF-SUPERB 95 BY THE P.F. — A REMARKABLE STAMP IN EVERY RESPECT. The 1902-03 Regular Issue was a great improvement over the Bureau’s first efforts in 1894 and 1895. Perforations tend to be cleaner, and centering better, but the large plate layout and perforating method still resulted in a large number of poorly centered stamps. Collecting practices of hinging stamps into albums and time have left very few superb Mint N.H. examples for today’s collectors. This is particularly true for the high $2.00 and $5.00 values of this series, which were printed in much smaller quantities than the lower values. This stamp should be considered a true condition rarity. With 2006 P.F. certificate (XF-Superb 95) Robert Siegel Auction Galleries, Dec 2013, Sale 1062, Lot 491 |
