Lot Sym. Lot Description Est/Cat Realized

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A BEAUTIFUL MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF SCOTT 519. SCARCE WITH SUCH BEAUTIFUL CENTERING AND IN SUCH PRISTINE CONDITION.

This stamp was created in 1917 when a small excess supply of the imperforate Scott 344 was returned by the New York City post office to the Bureau for credit. Rather than issue the credit, the Bureau perforated the sheets and returned them to the New York City post office for public sale.

With 1986 and 1997 P.F. certificates (Image)
