Is this Type V? All the other types are much more expensive. Also, the circle around Ben's head is very clear.
Perhaps more significant, is this a real stamp? It is in remarkably good condition for such an old piece of paper. looks uncanceled, and I see no evidence of it ever being hinged. It has no gum. It look and feels like a real stamp.
Yes, I knew the perfs were odd, but this is among the first U.S. stamps to be perfed. I have very little experience with stamps this old, so I had no clue what the perfs should look like.
