STAMP #: QAE2

TYPE: Document

GRADE: -

DESCRIPTION: 1765, 3d America Embossed Revenue stamp, Die B, on full sheet of laid paper showing a clear papermaker’s Lion watermark. This is the only reported unused copy on full document. The stamp displaying crisp embossing and well clear of the sheet's minor edge discolouration, an extremely elusive on-document example, with Zaluski recording only five examples of the 3d in private hands, which includes cut squares. Under cataloged in our opinion given its tremendous rarity, representing an exceptionally desirable item for an advanced collection, very fine with outstanding historical resonance. Unique.

An amazing Canadian Revenue rarity.
