USA RW11 $1 1945 Duck Mint OG VF/XF -85 Centering/NH - CV $210

Several small gum skip sections on the back - not uncommon for this war time issue.

If this stamp were graded using the illustrated grading chart for the new Scott 98 Point Grading System, I am of the opinion that it would probably grade out at VF/XF-85 with a catalog value of $210.

For an understanding of the new system including the grading chart, please see the Scott 2008 United States Specialized Valuing Supplement Catalog - Spring Edition.

This stamp does not have a PSE (Professional Stamp Experts) or PF (Philatelic Foundation) graded certification. In my opinion it does merit 3^rd party graded certification consideration by either one of these organizations.

It is important to note that in late 2005 the PF adopted PSE's numerical scale for the grading of US stamps and in 2006 Scott also recognized this scale and started publishing its United States Specialized Valuing Supplement Catalog with numeric and dollar values attached to stamp grades (F - F/VF - VF- XF etc.) it had already established back in the 1950s.

Buyer pays $2.00 for US shipping and TLC handling, $3.00 for International S/H. I do not consolidate shipping and handling, please pay for each invoice as issued when issued.

I prefer payment in cash, however I do accept checks, money orders and PayPal as well. If you do send payment in cash, round of to the nearest higher dollar, I will send your change in OLDER mint US postage. This payment incentive applies to cash payments only.
