Two well centered and very fine mint NH singles of the 5c blue and red Expo 67 Issue, each with a different type of paper and gum, as follows:
  • Horizontal wove with visible vertical mesh and streaky cream dex gum with a semi-gloss sheen. Under ultraviolet light the paper gives a dull fluorescent ivory reaction, with no fluorescent fibres being visible in the paper.
  • Horizontal wove with highly visible vertical mesh and streaky cream dex gum with a satin sheen. Under ultraviolet light the paper gives a dull fluorescent greyish white reaction with 1-2 low fluorescent fibres being visible in the paper.
Unitrade values two VF-75 NH singles on the normal dull paper at $0.70. The stamps offered here grade VF-80 NH as follows: Margins/centering: 50/70 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.
