2c Deep Rose, Ty. Ia
(500). Mint N.H., rich color on bright paper, perfect centering with
wide and balanced margins, long and full perforations all
aroundEXTREMELY FINE GEM. A MAGNIFICENT MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 2-CENT DEEP ROSE TYPE Ia. A TRUE CONDITION RARITY. The Type Ia Scott 500 was created during an experiment of the Bureau in creating a new type of transfer roll. A die was made from the old Type I transfer roll, having ten impressions on it. A new transfer roll was then made, using the new ten-impression master die. This new transfer roll was then used to create two new plates. Since this is essentially a "lossy" process, there are some noticeable differences between the plates created using this method and the old method of using one die impression to create the transfer roll. With 1988 and 2000 P.F. and 2007 P.S.E. certificates (XF-Superb 95, SMQ $4,000.00) (Image) |
