<B>HB-137 EP-167 Scott-99 Reed-JG24 24¢ J. Gault About New.<BR>Numerical grade: 85case.80stamp.85mica = 250</B></I> The most common of the 24¢ pieces is this one, issued by John Gault. This encasement is in extraordinary condition, with a high-grade golden olive case, a well centered, boldly printed stamp and a mica that is crystal clear, with only the most minor of surface contact marks. This would be an ideal piece for a denomination set. Reed considers the 24¢ Gault to be an R-4, indicating 31 to 40 known. As with the 12¢, we think that number may be a bit generous, and we believe the total to be more like 25. Be that as it may, for this denomination, the Gault piece can be considered common. Outstanding grade... one of the nicest 24¢'s of any merchant we've seen.<BR><I>From The Frederick Mayer Collection</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
