If you received an item that does not match the Scott #/description in this listing, please send me a message and let me know, I will be happy to issue a full refund once the item is returned.

Grades for stamps that do not have certificates are based solely on the centering, nothing else. I provide high resolution scans for you to examine the stamp in great detail. You can right click on them, and select "Open Image in New Tab" to view the full resolution. Please send me a message if you have questions, do not make assumptions.

I am not an expert in identifying stamps, however, I personally check every perf, watermark, secret mark, etc. on each of these stamps. Please let me know if you find otherwise, I do not want to misrepresent something and will end/revise the listing.
