Although I've been collecting early Spanish stamps for quite a while, I haven't bought anything of any significance for around 5 years. Actually, about 5 years ago I had to sell off a lot of my better items, including most of my 1850 issues, because of financial difficulties the wife and I were having. Quite a few of the items I'll probably never be able to replace, but I was glad to be able to sell some things of value.
Today, even though the economy is bad and I still don't have very much extra cash to spend on stamps, I was able to finally get a #3 to put back in my collection. My album looked so bare.
This was a pretty good price and is totally genuine. I just hope there are no "hidden problems".
This copy appears to be type 5 in the block of 30 types.
