Liberty Issue and earlier precancels are not priced in Scott. According to Scott Catalogue precancels are listed only if the precanceled stamp is different from the nonprecanceled version, or if the stamp only exists precanceled. Read to learn more about this scarce variety, which was the third of the 2c Jefferson precancel types. Dry print precancel coils were first printed on the new Huck Press in 1956. Earlier wet printings had been on the old Stickney Press, which was being replaced. Eventually the BEP was able to print and perforate the coils on new Huck equipment creating dry prints with new smaller (Huck) holes like this pair. The minimum print order from the BEP for a precancelled city coil was 250,000 stamps so quantities were initially available to permit use holders. There was a problem though. At the time of this printing, it was illegal for collectors to purchase precancels without a precancel user's permit. Few dealers or collectors could meet this requirement so the precancels for collectors were often devalued by soaking them in water to remove the gum. MNH Full gummed pairs from this era are much harder to find than no gum or used counterparts. 1055v 1055s 1055as 1055p two-cent 2-cents $0.02 .02 2¢ 2c Please read this before bidding on this auction Regarding the Stamps: Stock photo.
