I was considering bidding on this very rare stamp. It does not ave a cert and the scan could be better however it seems to be legit. Can anyone see anything that would indicate it is a forgery? Times running out so I would appreciate a quick response from someone knowledgeable with the issue.

Mitch, I cannot imagine this stamp without a certificate! Also, I don't like the perforations on the RHS. Also, is the paper bluish?

rrr... Thanks for taking a look. Guess I'll never know as the scan is all I have to go by and the auction has ended. I was the second under bidder loosing by $170.
