Fr. 1282SP 25c Wide Margin Back Specimen First Issue
Grade: PCGS Gem New 66 PPQ    

---

Through the holder there seems to be an overwhelming evidence that this wide margin back specimen could have found a home in a "67" holder. The margins and centering are excellent, the paper quality and color superb with about 2-1/2 cutting guidelines present. Green Sheet ask in Gem 65 is $320 and in Superb Gem 67 is $640. Our estimate of value lies in the middle.
