Description
Encased Postage Stamps
Popular Ribbed Frame 5 HUNT & NASH "Irving House"
EP-82, HB-152, S-108a, 5, HUNT & NASH, "Irving House," New York, Ribbed Frame, Fine.
Rated a Rarity-4 (31 to 40 known) according to Fred Reed. This example is of the always popular "Ribbed Frame" major Type. The deep rich brown 5 Thomas Jefferson 1861 Civil War Postage issue stamp is very well centered and quite vivid. However, there are some scattered hits to the mica surface causing some surface craze and a pinhole in the mica at 12:00 at the rim edge, causing a small bruise. The case is a natural chestnut-brown in color with a lighter tone to the reverse with its legends. There are some scattered small tone specks at left, whereas the fine details of the individual ribbing to the face side appears sharp. Although not perfect, this example shows actual use from circulation, which some collectors prefer.
