EVIDENT UNDERNEITH THE GUM ARE A PENCIL NOTATION “77”, AS WELL AS A SECOND UNDISCERNABLE NOTATION AND A DEALER BACKSTAMP. WHAT APPEAR AS CREASES AND A POTENTIALLY THINNED AREA ON THE REVERSE TOP ARE SIMPLY AREAS OF AGING EVIDENT ON THE RUGUMMING. ASIDE FROM THE REGUMMING, THE STAMP APPEARS SOUND WITH VF CENTERING. WE ARE HAPPY TO GIVE THE BUYER A 60 DAY EXTENSION FOR PF, PSE OR APEX CERTIFICATION PURPOSES. ALL CERTIFICATION FEES ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER. AN EXTENSION MUST BE REQUESTED AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, OTHERWISE NORMAL RETURN PRIVILEGE TERMS WILL APPLY. INTERESTINGLY, OUR CUSTOMER ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THIS STAMP FROM A LAS VEGAS FIRM “NORTH AMERICAN COLLECTIBLES” IN 2009 FOR $3500! THE FIRM MADE ALL SORTS OF OUTLANDISH STATEMENTS ABOUT INVESTMENT POTENTIAL, VALUE, ETC WHICH WERE CLEARLY DESIGNED TO DECEIVE POTENTIAL CUSTOMERS. WE WILL INCLUDE THE FOLDER WITH ALL OF THE COMPANY’S ORIGINAL DOCUMENTATION AS PART OF THIS LOT. DESPITE ALL OF THE NEGATIVES, THIS IS STILL A VERY SCARCE MINT CLASSIC STAMP AND A HOLE THAT LIES EMPTY IN MOST ALBUMS. HERE IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A NICE, AFFORDABLE MINT EXAMPLE OF SCOTT #77 FOR A SMALL FRACTION OF ITS CATALOG VALUE. Our commitment is to provide you with quality coins and collectibles at the best possible prices. This piece is no exception.
