AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Two specimens of the 10 centesimi for the Ricognizione Postale d’Italia booklets, issued in 1874, Sassone no. 1, both new with original intact gum (MNH) and accompanied by a Diena certificate dated 26 April 2024.
Both specimens are declared original, perfect, and with original intact gum.
• First specimen: certified as EXCEPTIONALLY CENTERED, signed with “RD”. Sassone 2025 catalog value indicated: €1,375.00.
• Second specimen: certified as WELL CENTERED. Sassone 2025 catalog value indicated: €900.00. The certificate also reports the wording “I signed it RD”; in the current reverse photograph the initial is not clearly visible, while the offered stamp corresponds to the specimen photographed in the certificate. This circumstance is reported for maximum transparency.
Total catalog value indicated: €2,275.00.
Provenance: private collection.
The photographs of the two certificates, the fronts and the reverses constitute an integral part of the description and allow direct assessment of centering, perforation, gum, and condition.
Careful and secure shipping.
A particularly interesting lot consisting of two specimens from the same issue, both certified Diena, with different levels of centering expressly stated in the certificates.
