1 Used slight defects, lightly canceled. Looks nice. (The lighter paper coloration suggests that this might be 1a, yellow gum, but cannot be determined for sure.) ACTUAL item. |

2 PRIVATELY ROULETTED????? [1866 3 cent Rose, Imperforate?] Mint, without gum, F-VF with three margins, but with internal paper break in the back of the stamp (a lateral tear within the plane of the paper). This example appears to be rouletted, and AFA and DAKA do list two different private roulettes (4.5 and 9.5), but only in Used condition and on cover. Because it would be relatively easy to alter a normal imperforate example to look like a rouletted example, I cannot state definitively that this is a genuine private roulette -- however, I also cannot state that it is a fake roulette. This could be the real thing and if so, it would be quite rare and valuable, especially since Mint examples do not seem to have been recorded. (I obtained it in a group of DWI duplicates, not recognized for what it may be, from a collector who obtained it in a group of stamps also not recognized for what it might be.) This example may not be genuine rouletted stamp, thus it can only be offered AS-IS. Do you feel lucky? ACTUAL item. |

246723 "View EXACT ACTUAL Image"){kind=small} |
3 [1872 3 cent Carmine, Perforated] Used with Fine centering and neat, correct, mute ring cancellation, but with a couple of short perforations and small thin in margin. With the correct, neat, light, 5-ring-dot mute cancellation. This stamp issue was printed with extremely narrow margins and very crude perforations, thus the appearance of this is typical. Otherwise an example (without thin and short perfs) with this centering would be $235. (Scott 2023 $320.) ACTUAL item. |
