Could It Be A SC #26 87r15?

Picked this for $10 yesterday and can hardly wait until it arrives. The photo is not too clear on ebay but took a small chance.

Small chance... big payoff. A better image will be nice but looks good to me.

Nice! Pretty well centered for that issue. Is it unused?

stampcrow, this is all the posting said:

U.S. 1851-57 ISSUE, 26
Mint, HR, sm. faults, F
Cat. Val. $ 65.00

Good luck to you in confirming that position! I see in the specialized
catalague that it is very special.

Check out cert #455054 on the PF Search site. I think you made a very, very good buy.

Update: received it today. Appears mint hinged in the past with some gum disturbance.

Great...!!!

My 2009 Scott Specialized only lists a used value... Is that a sign of rarity?

My 2016 Scott Specialized provides no value either. I believe it means there have not been enough sales to fairly estimate its value, likely assuming there are enough of them to be able to do so. After all there are values in a few listings in Scotts where the item is so unique another most likely does not exist yet the value is supplied based upon that one sale (ex. 11Ab).

I have seen another on a Facebook web site and heard of a mint block which includes this position also. There are 4 used version sales in Siegel and there have been 4 used listings on ebay (this year). No unused though.

I love it!!
