Encased Postage Stamps
Ten Known Ten Cents “J. Bailey & Company”
EP-100, HB-47, S-24, Reed-BC10. Ten Cents. J. BAILEY & CO., Philadelphia. Choice Extremely Fine.
Rated as Rarity-8 (5 to 10 known), according to Fred Reed. We have only sold three examples at auction in over several decades. This important rarity has beautiful overall eye appeal with just a tiny deeper tone spot on the reverse rim edge at three o'clock. The mica is very clear with only a minor edge rim craze at the lower left. The case is a beautiful natural chestnut-brown in color with some underlying original glossy luster. The text of the reverse legends are extremely sharp being About New in quality with virtually no wear seen. An outstanding, high quality example of this extreme rarity.
