Item Description
You will be receiving the exact scanned stamp shown, both front and back. This particular stamp is Scott's number 1, the first postage stamp issued by the US Postal Service, dating to 1847. The stamp's condition is Used, but it is largely in sound condition. Underneath the figure's left eye there is a minor hole through to the back, but it is very difficult to notice even if you know to look for it. The larger black spot on the stamp rear is a ink spot that is not visible from the stamp front. Portions of the margins are intact on all four sides, but none are complete. The blue cancel cancel is of the numeral '10'. The 1 is left on the stamp left, while the 0 traces out Benjamin Franklin's face. The 2020 Scott's catalog value for this stamp in used condition is $350.No color adjustments or modifications have been done on the scan, though the color you'll see when looking at it in-person tends to look more vibrant and dynamic! There's no need to put your faith in a listing using a stock photo; zoom in on the high-resolution scan above to examine this stamp in great detail.
I will ship this item insured and with a tracking number to make sure it gets to you quickly and in good condition. Please ask me any questions you might have about this item, so I can get you any information you need. Thank you!
