Description
We appreciate you taking the time to check out our 1923 Rotary Press Printing Scott #579. This stamp is a 1 cent carmine Washington, that was printed exactly 100 Years Ago! Since this stamp has been lightly canceled, making it far more valuable than if it was in Mint Condition. Unlike U.S. #578, which was only cut into 170-subject sheets, U.S. #579 was also cut into 100-subject & 70-subject panes. This made them easier to package & store, but was a departure from the Bureau's normal practice of keeping record by plate number (on complete 170-subject sheets). These stamp's were then sold as sheets to the public to save money after the US was still struggling to attain funds after the First World War. This stamp would make a great addition to anyone's stamp collection! Scott #579 Features: Washington, 2 Cent Stamp Issue Date: February 20, 1923 First City: Washington, D.C.
