Mexico, 1887 Numeral Issue - Green Ledger Lines Paper, balance of the multi-gold exhibit of Mexican Numerals: The Green Ledger Lines Paper of 1887. A variety of great stamps and covers mounted in the original exhibition pages including all 4 denominations. This is the rarest part of the issue, when leger paper was used to print stamps for a short period. This balance features the 3 largest unused recorded multiples: A block of 25 of the 1c perf 6 (Sc#201=$ 1,500), a block of 18 of the 2c perf 6 (Sc#202= $ 1,080) and the fantastic full sheet of 100 of the 5c perf 6 (Sc#204= $5,000). This is the best of the 2 recorded full sheets. Also a block of 4 of 2c perf 12 (Sc #196= $760) and a very rare block of 4 unused of the 5c perf 6x12 obviously genuine (Sc# 209=$900). There is a section of bold cancels on the 5c and 10c. Although covers are super scarce in this issue, 3 colorful and pristine are included. Estimate $4,000 - 6,000.
