Vertical strip of four 3c fractionals, CHCU. Vertical strip of four 3c fractionals, CHCU.
Lot Title: Vertical strip of four 3c fractionals, CHCU.
Description: Fr# 1226. "No pearls", as can be verified by the lack of a tiny circle dangling from the small diamond centered beneath Washington's portrait. This scarce variety was printed only on plates 32 and 35, and the "3" in the extreme right margin affirms that the strip originated from either plate. Ex-Herman Collection; lot 198; September 1974. Gem CU.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.

Low Estimate: $1,000.00
