Lot #137
United States - Revenues
1871 60c orange and black, center inverted, plate proof on card, foreign entry of 70c, rare double transfer of the frame that shows strongly at the top and is one of the best positions that shows that this is an entry of the 70c rather than the 60c (there are actually five positions that show double transfers that may be foreign entries), large margins all around, strong colors and sharp impressions, v.f. This is the unique foreign entry from this position as there was only one sheet of 85 printed; listed but unpriced in Scott's; signed Sloane, with 2006 PFC stating “genuine, lightly toned” (actually, there is no toning but the paper is yellowish)
