Two well centered and very fine mint NH singles of the 5c violet blue 1967 Canadian Press Issue, on vertical wove paper with no visible vertical mesh, and with streaky cream dex gum with a satin sheen. Each gives a different reaction under ultraviolet light as follows:
  1. Dull fluorescent greyish white with no fluorescent fibres visible in the paper.
  2. Low fluorescent greyish white with very sparse concentrations of low and medium fluorescent fibres visible in the paper.
Line perf. 11.85 x 11.95. Unitrade values two VF-75 NH singles $1.35. 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.
