Costs of US Stamps Scott # 292: US$1.00 1898 Trans Mississippi Exposition. Robert Siegel Auction Galleries, Dec 2009, Sale 978, Lot 1093

$1.00 Trans-Mississippi (Scott 292). Mint N.H., intense shade on post office fresh paper, incredibly detailed impression which highlights every minute detail of this wonderful engraving EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A SPECTACULAR MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE $1.00 TRANS-MISSISSIPPI ISSUE, WIDELY REGARDED AS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL UNITED STATES COMMEMORATIVE STAMP EVER ISSUED. THIS MAGNIFICENT STAMP HAS BEEN GRADED XF-SUPERB 95 BY P.S.E., WHICH IS THE HIGHEST GRADE AWARDED TO A MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE. The $1.00 Trans-Mississippi’s long-time popularity with collectors led to hinging of the vast majority of singles. Although blocks have been broken over the years to supply Mint N.H. singles, it seems that grading is always a compromise between perfect centering and margin width. Only in a few instances do we find the combination of Mint N.H. condition, Extremely Fine Gem centering and wide balanced margins. This stamp is one of those rare examples combining everything that could be desired. P.S.E. encapsulated (XF-Superb 95, SMQ $30,400.00). This is the highest grade awarded to date to a Mint N.H. stamp, and only five others have achieved this grade.
