This was a large crack in Plate 2 of the 1 cent 1851 and 1857. Imperforate #7 or perforated #20, both Type II. It's position number 13L2 and not flawless but w the large margin on the left you see more of the crack on this one than a normal #20 and the price was right..and BTW rarer on the perfed #20 than the imperf #7. And I'm sure Mr. Sinclair was in on this one :)...

Gorgeous! I would love to see this one with it's neighbors, because it looks like the crack went beyond the shown stamp into at least the one below it! Congrats with this one Ray!
