Sold 17 Apr 2002 to "stazy4" for $9.50 and described as:
USA #98 used - CV$300 Star cancel
This item has a few faults - some discoloration, a pinhole and a thin spot. The grill measures 9x13mm. Catalog values taken from the 2002 Scott Catalgoue.
The stamp was cleaned. It then found a new life on the RIGHT.
Educational Part:
I guess we should note that since the honest seller describes a 9 x 13
mm "F" grill, this would mark the first real grill that the
alterations ring has sold that I can remember. Also, note that the "F"
grill isn't the biggest of the big grills: the "A" and "C"
grills are.
Looks like the stains have also been removed.
