Spotty in the B.O.B. arena, yet there is a mixed mint and used Q group. Condition is extremely mixed and some no gum mint in areas you would not expect. Still enough solid value to warrant serious consideration.Cat. Value: S.B. 950.00
Price Realized: $1,600.00
141O*CVExtensive and massive US and UN collection filling four heavy cartons. Parallel mint and used US group with mint C1-C6, Prexie set, and C18 as highlights. All the earlies are used and when everything is counted a gigantic Cat. value is achieved. But most of the value is in the mint face types 1980-1998 which need a complete count because when done earlier contained the mostly unusable face of the prolific plate strips from the fractional decimal issues in several volumes.
