Fr. 1232 5c Second Issue Uncut Sheet of Twenty Choice Extremely Fine. This sheet was printed from Face Plate 243 and Back Pate 190, both of which were plates that had been prepared for more-than-20-subject sheets, but were cut down and never used in their larger (original) form. These sheets can be identified by the placement of the plate number, which is in the bottom margin on these sheets, instead of one row higher as it appears on the normal 20-subject plates. This particular sheet is cut closely at the top and wide at the bottom, allowing the top portions of four of the additional notes to show. This is only the third example we've seen of one of these cut-down items. The notes themselves are gorgeous, with bright bronze and no soil. The XF grade is due solely to a few light folds. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
