Canada #475i (SG#617) 5c 1967 Toronto Centenary F Paper & Gum Type 13 VF-84 NH

A very well centered and very fine mint NH single of the 5c myrtle green and pale rose red 1967 Toronto Centennial Issue. Line perf. 11.85 x 11.95. Horizontal wove paper with no visible mesh, and no ribbing. Smooth creamy DEX gum with a satin sheen. Under ultraviolet light, the paper gives a low fluorescent bluish reaction, with a sparse concentration of low and medium fluorescent fibres being visible in the paper. This is one of the variations of the fluorescent paper that I have encountered on this issue. Unitrade values a VF-75 NH single at $1.00. The stamp offered here grades VF-84 NH as follows: Margins/centering: 54/70 Paper freshness: 5/5 Colour: 5/5 Impression: 5/5 Absence of visible paper flaws: 5/5 Perforations: 10/10 Note any vertical or horizontal line shown in the scan is the edge of the acetate strip that the stamp was resting inside on the stockcard. Note: the above scan is a stock photo as are all my scans for material after 1952. The item(s) you will receive has (have) been carefully checked to adhere to the above grading standards, so while it (they) may not be exactly the same, it (they) will be of the same quality. Also, I do not provide back scans of NH stamps or blocks after 1952 unless they are required to illustrate some attribute of the paper or gum.
