Canada Stamp #7 - Jacques Cartier (1855) 10d

Outer frame fully visible, quite discreet cancellation, tiny cut next to the lower left "10", but still has a very beautiful overall appearance!

The stamp has a superb appearance with four extra large balanced margins and on the scarcer white opaque paper (#7a), but the back was expertly repaired because there was a thin in the paper (behind ANA of CANADA). It is nevertheless, one of the most skillful reparations we have ever seen, as it is almost invisible! A good way to acquire a superb looking ten pence Cartier at a reduced price!

The upper right corner was damaged, then a repaired reconstruction was added, but it still looks better than most faulty copies with a large margined appearance and a quite light four ring numeral cancellation.

Nice deep colour, lightly cancelled, two large margins, a beautiful example of the scarce ten pence Cartier!

Only tight at upper left, otherwise close to full margins and with a very interesting horizontal blue guide line through the centre of the stamp, unlisted and very rare (no premium counted)!

On the scarcer and higher quality thick white opaque paper (#7a), full outer frame, quite light grid cancellation, a beautiful classic!

The stamp has a small crease at lower left corner
