C3 Jenny With Guide Line Perf

How do you folks rate this Jenny?

I think the guideline actually enhances the stamp. But some grading pro's think it impacts the stamp negatively.




Costed 30 bucks and looks so beautiful to me.

You have a couple of issues here, with respect to grading. The red frame and outer design are centered high and to the right. The blue vignette is printed low, with traces of the blue shading lines lying over the red inner frame line above CENTS. Then there's the guide line, which for many viewers makes the overall appearance asymmetrical and distracts the eyes. The latter issue is quite subjective so why worry about what "grading pros" (or any of us here) think, if you like it? If it has given you more than $30 in satisfaction, then you won.

I am with cjpalermo - I like the stamp. And the guide line actually is a plus in my opinion, it lets you know approximately where in the printed sheet the stamp was located. Pretty stamp and enjoy it!

The guide line will cost the stamp 5 points when graded by PSE.

All of that and the line or stain and enclusion still a nice stamp I think. So very hard to get that perfect stamp.

I am very happy with the stamp. One item of my checklist... !
