Auction: SW1002 - Latin America, including the Tito Collection - Part I
Lot: 1388

1845, 60r. black, worn impression, type I, a very fine example with very large margins on two sides enabling the marginal rule of the sheet at right to be exhibited, unused with gum. As confirmed by statistic reports and the scarcity on the market, the 60r. type I on thin paper is much scarcer than the 60r. type II or the 60r. type I on "Bull"s Eye" paper; as a matter of fact, 20 used stamps of type II exist for each stamp of type I on thin paper. This 60r.  stamp is the only one in unused condition so far recorded representing the scarce type I. An important rarity of the "Inclinados". RHM 6A = R$ 15,000. Starting Price US$ 1,500
