701		539	#539, 2c Carmine rose coil waste, Ty. II, perf. 11x10, brilliant "post office" fresh mint example of this rare and difficult stamp, deep luxuriant color and crisp impression, while centered a bit to top this is still better centered than most, as this issue is notoriously poorly centered, pristine o.g., never hinged, fine; 1992 PF certificate for a horizontal strip of three, this being the third stamp. (Image)	3,750.00 SOLD for $1,700.00 Closing..Dec-07, 05:00 PM
702		540a	#540a, 2c Carmine rose, imperforate horizontally, an especially select mint block of four containing two error pairs, wonderfully well centered and brilliantly fresh, o.g., n.h., extremely fine; 1996 PF certificate. (Image)	as two pairs 160.00+ SOLD for $110.00 Closing..Dec-07, 05:00 PM
703	O	544	#544, 1c Green coil waste, perf. 11, a marvelous quality used example of this extremely rare 20th century stamp, being not only free of the myriad of faults which affect so many existing examples, but it also possesses far better centering than typically found, with the design well clearing the perforations all around, its color is unusually deep and luxuriant, while its impression is razor sharp on bright fresh paper, neat San Francisco precancel, very fine and exceedingly choice; the value quoted in the Scott catalog is for examples in fine condition only, and does not accurately reflect the value of a premium example such as this; 1975 PF certificate.

704		545	#545, 1c Green coil waste, perf. 11, an uncommonly choice mint example of this surprisingly elusive stamp to find in premium condition, featuring exceptional centering for a coil waste issue and being unusually well centered, deep rich color and a crisp impression, pristine o.g., n.h., extremely fine; this stamp's catalog value does not accurately reflect the actual market value for a premium quality example such as this; 1997 PF certificate. (Image)	300.00 SOLD for $1,100.00 Closing..Dec-07, 05:00 PM
705		546	#546, 2c Carmine rose coil waste, Ty. III, perf. 11, a mind-boggling top sheet-margin single with star imprint, in a quality that virtually no other coil waste stamp can match, possessing the most gargantuan margins we have ever seen on this typically tightly margined stamp, and most remarkably it is perfectly centered within these massive borders, gorgeous radiant color, pristine o.g., n.h., extremely fine; without fear of being contradicted, this is the finest 1921 Two Cent Coil Waste stamp in existence; 1988 and 1996 PF certificates. (Image)	200.00 SOLD for $1,150.00 Closing..Dec-07, 05:00 PM

708		550	#550, 5c Pilgrim Tercentenary, perfectly centered within extravagantly large margins, stunning vibrant color and a prooflike impression, o.g., n.h., extremely fine and most impressive; 2001 PF certificate. (Image)	67.50 SOLD for $270.00 Closing..Dec-07, 05:00 PM
