Item Description
Stamp Analysis: Scott #866Design
The stamp features an intricate engraving of James Russell Lowell. The detailed frame includes floral elements and a ribbon below, marking the denomination as "3 CENTS" on both sides.
Impression: Clear and sharp, with excellent ink application.
Soundness
Observations: The stamp is in faultless condition, showing no creases, tears, thins, or gum disturbances.
Grade: Faultless
Centering
Observations: Centering shows noticeable off-centering, particularly on the left side, where the margin is narrower compared to the right. Margins remain full, with white space between the frameline and perforations.
Grade: 79 (Fine/Very Fine Centering)
Perforations
Observations: Perforations are clean, even, and intact around all edges, with no pulled or short perforations. The gauge matches the original specification.
Grade: Faultless
Eye Appeal
Observations: Vibrant color, sharp impression, and a clean, undisturbed surface make this stamp visually appealing. No discoloration or detracting marks.
Grade: Excellent
Combining Centering and Soundness
Based on the PSE Standards:
Centering: Fine/Very Fine (79)
Soundness: Faultless (100)
According to the PSE Table:
Fine/Very Fine Centering + Faultless Soundness = Fine/Very Fine (75-79).
Thus, the final combined grade is 79 (Fine/Very Fine).
