Canada #112a (SG#250a) 5c Dark Violet on Thin Paper 1911-27 Admiral Issue - VF-82 NH

A very well centered and post office fresh NH example of this distinct experimental printing from 1924. The gum is NH, but there is a very small mark on the gum at the top right, which under magnification appears to be a natural irregularity, and is not a hinge mark or gum disturbance. Getting difficult to find like this. Unitrade values a VF-75 NH example at $135. The example offered here grades 82 as follows:

Centering/Margins - 54/70

Colour - 5/5

Paper freshness - 5/5

Impression 5/5
