1915, $1 violet black, D.L. watermark, perf 10 (Scott 460), top margin plate block of 6, o.g., never hinged, stunning example of this rarely offered plate block; vivacious color and clearly etched impression; astounding mint condition with full and unblemished gum – an incomprehensible state of preservation; throw away the modest Scott catalog value of $18,000, as this plate block, in this unheard of condition, is worthy of placement in the finest collection, Very Fine, with 2017 P.S.E. certificate.
Scott $18,000.
Estimate $15,000 – 20,000
