Original Silvering Five Cents “Lord & Taylor” New York
EP-84, HB-170, S-123. Five Cents. Lord & Taylor. New York. With Original Silvering. Choice Extremely Fine to About Uncirculated.
Rated as Rarity-7 (11 to 15 known) according to Fred Reed. One of only five different examples we’ve offered of this denomination. The beautiful, fresh Thomas Jefferson stamp is deep original brown in color and is fairly well centered, just a bit to the left. The mica is clear and unbroken. The case is a chestnut in color, with absolutely no marks or other noted detractions. There is slight evidence of any actual circulation or wear on the reverse. The sharp case with near 50% full with its original Silvering. We offered a similar example of EP-84 in our February 14, 2004 Auction, Lot 675, graded Choice EF, which sold at $4,025. The Five Cent in the Ford Collection Sale was a highly polished T. James Clarke owned example. This specimen is superior to them both. An excellent Five Cents, Lord & Taylor Merchant for any high quality Encased Postage Stamp collection.
