One of Just A Trio Known Ellis McAlpin & Co. 3 Cents. HB-111. EP-43, S-79. Extremely Fine. A highly difficult issuer and particularly this Three Cents denomination. This piece was once part of both the Ford and Kelly holdings having last brought $2,990 in 2012. The case and frame are both polished and lacquered to a bright finish which would likely indicate a further pedigree to the Dunham collection. An appealing stamp and mica with the latter showing a craze at the bottom right with otherwise minor blemishes.
Ex. John J. Ford Jr. Collection, Part IV, Lot 480. 2004; Ex. William H. Kelly Collection, Lot 15573. 2012.
