Can you value these?
The first copy was offered via ebay. It is close at top, but the centering is pretty good. Offered on ebay but did not sell.
The second copy was sold via auction and was sold. The centering is quite desirable. Deep rich color. Unfortunately a short perf at left.
The last copy was also offered for sale via ebay, the centering about the same as the first. Aslo has a short perf at left. It was unsold.
All are MH, all were sold or offered for sale in Dec 2004
All have PF certs. Pass your cursor over the question mark to find the answers.
