15c Red Orange (189). Mint N.H., intense shade and impression on bright paper, gorgeous centering with wide and balanced margins
EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A SUPERB MINT NEVER-HINGED EXAMPLE OF THE 15-CENT 1879 AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY ISSUE, GRADED XF-SUPERB 95 BY P.S.E.
This issue is often found in Mint N.H. condition, as several sheets have been broken in recent years. However, most of the stamps in these sheets are somewhat off-center, and examples such as this are rare.
Ex "El Dorado". With 2004 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95). Only four grade higher (three at 98, one at 100) and six others share this desirable grade.
