Hi, I got this United Stated Franklin of 15 c denomination and grey colour, 1911-12. I could not find what the absence of perforation at the bottom does for the value. The other sides are perf 12 by the way.

It decreases the value to most collectors.

This stamp was printed in a sheets of 400 with lines to cut into four pane of 50. This web page explains why your stamp has a line of color on one side. They are actually scarcer than fully perforated stamps, but un-popular.
