Item Description

Information.
The issued postage stamp does not have a certificate. The reason is that there is no globally recognized company / expert in American postage stamps in the Czech Republic. Although I am a collector who has been collecting American stamps for 40 years, I do not dare to quote such an expensive stamp from the SCOTT catalog. So if you decide to buy this stamp, please see the pictures from the scanner. I tried to present them in as much detail as possible.

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN 1c stamp, blue is, in my opinion, a common stamp for a philatelist, I have more in my collection in shades. As you know, grill - split makes this postage stamp unique. The split grill is a bit mysterious, leading experts can't agree on how it originated, so it's rare / valuable. I will quote from STAMP SMARTER:

Multiple or divided grills
Occasionally, during the grilling process, the stamp received "split" or multiple grill prints. These stamps are often sought after by many specialists and may require a higher price.
There are still questions about the grilling process and how multiple grilling may have taken place. It is not clear whether the stamp sheets could move back and forth in the same grill passage or whether the sheets were repeatedly fed.

Please pay attention to the type of grill. I will be happy if there is a serious applicant, I can reasonably agree on the price. I emphasize again that the mark does not have a certificate, but I assume that it is the only one in the world. Thank you for your attention.
