I'm not going to bid on this one because I already have two copies of this plate position. But it is position 10L5 easily identified by the small dot directly across from Franklin's nose up against the centerline. If it truly is unused it has a catalog value of $1000, and there are some problems with the perfs but it would be reasonable with this price and a good reference copy of the Type Va.

Thought I would share in case somebody was interested out there.

If so, docgfd, the position of the pictured item is 10L7, not 10L5 (showing "eye curl" and dot in A of POSTAGE).

Dudley is absolutely correct on this one...my mistake and a bad one...10L7. I saw the dot and made an assumption without looking at the rest of the stamp...my bad and thanks for the heads up. ..and I also forgot to post the item #...tough morning!! Sorry, ray
