A very well centered mint NH example on toned vertical wove paper that additionally shows a strong entry in that both lower leaves are doubled, as shown in the attached scans. The toned paper is not separately listed in Unitrade, but it is found on all issues from the Jubilees through the Admirals in addition to the white wove. It does not result from improper storage, but is a legitimate paper variety. The paper measures 0.004" thick with the cream gum. Unitrade values a VF-75 NH example without re-entry at $60.

Centering/margins: 54/70
