1c Green, Rotary Perf 11, Design 191/4 x 223/4 (596). Nicely centered with wide bottom margin, full perfs all around, wavy line machine cancel rather than the usual Kansas City precancel. Faint corner crease
at upper right and what is described as a "tiny tear" at bottom inside one perf, but so infinitesimal as to be more accurately called a minute break. Still Very Fine. Recently discovered and never offered at public auction, this is one of the finest
appearing examples we have ever encountered. This Rotary Plate Coil Waste is the rarest 20th Century U. S. stamp known to collectors and one of the rarest of all U. S. stamps. Probably no more than 10 or 12 copies are known and nearly all have the
