5c Orange Brown, Reprint (Scott 42). Without gum as issued, wonderful warm color, unusually wide margins, long and full perforations EXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF THE 5-CENT 1857 REPRINT. The Continental Bank Note Company reprinted the 5c stamp from the original plate of 200 subjects. 10,000 were printed (50 impressions). Only 878 were sold, the remaining 9,122 were destroyed on July 23, 1884, by order of the Postmaster General. Due to the narrow spacing between subjects, many have perforations touching the design at either top or bottom. The example offered here, with unusually wide margins, is a remarkable stamp. With 1988 and 2001 P.F. certificates. Robert Siegel Auction Galleries, Dec 2012, Sale 1036, Lot 103 |

5c Orange Brown, Reprint (Scott 42). Without gum as issued, rich color on bright paper, detailed impression, gorgeous centering EXTREMELY FINE GEM EXAMPLE OF THE 5-CENT 1857 REPRINT. THIS STUNNING STAMP HAS BEEN GRADED XF-SUPERB 95 BY P.S.E., WHICH IS THE HIGHEST GRADE AWARDED. As collectors of high-grade stamps know only too well, the 5c 1857 Reprint (878 sold) is notorious for its typically tight margins and poor centering. Before seeing this stamp, we doubted that any example could achieve the coveted XF-Superb 95 grade. Ex Whitman. With 2011 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95, SMQ price $12,600.00). This is the highest grade awarded and the only example to achieve this grade. The next-highest grade is a 90 (one stamp) which was offered in our Sale 967.
