2c Black, Z. Grill (85B).
Choice centering and wide margins, sharp proof-like impression,
well-defined grillEXTREMELY FINE. A REMARKABLY CHOICE USED EXAMPLE OF THE 1868 2-CENT Z GRILL. The plates used to print 2c Black Jack stamps failed to provide enough space between subjects for the large 12-gauge perf holes. Consequently, most examples have perfs touching the design on one or two sides. The scarcity of centered copies multiplies exponentially when the Z Grill is factored into the equation. With 1988 and 2003 P.F. certificates, the former for on cover (Image) |
