Well struck and lustrous with choice original surfaces and just a touch of high-point friction.

Well struck with mint red lustrous surfaces, which is seldom-seen on this better date.

CAC. Well struck with choice original surfaces that are lustrous and mostly white, with just the barest touch of high-point ‘rub’.

Mule. Well centered with strong color and paper that displays nicely for the grade.

A lovely high end ‘Gem’ that is fresh and bright. Great eye appeal!

Vivid ink rests upon bright original paper. Quite attractive.

A bright note with strong color and nice centering.
