Lot 136 Canada #117iv 10c Blue King George V, 1911-1925 Admiral Issue, A Fine Used Single On Thin Horizontal Wove Paper

A VF appearing, but fine used single of the 10c blue King George V from the 1911-1925 Admiral Issue on horizontal wove paper.

Very tiny corner crease on the very corner perf at lower left. This very rare printing is on truly thin paper, thinner than even that found on the 2c and 5c. Furthermore, although it appears wet, it is actually a dry printing. Most all examples were precancelled and most without precancel are usually very poorly centered or heavily cancelled. This is the nicest looking example we have offered yet.

Unitrade values this at $80. The stamp offered here grades 65 as follows:

Centering/Margins: 35/60

Paper Freshness: 5/5

Colour: 5/5

Impression: 5/5

Absence of Visible Paper Flaws: 5/5
