United States, Scott #5755, used(o), 2023, Floral Geometry Parcel Stamp, $10.00, offset lithography printed with a pressed foil application by the Banknote Corporation of America (BCA), serpentine die cut simulated perforations: 10½, non-water soluble adhesive, ‘USPS’ in black ink security microprint at the bottom of the stamp at the middle, silver and magenta, Scott 2025 Catalog Value: $5.00, nicely centered (superb), very light, large, black-inked, double-rimmed, quarter circular, hollowed-out, socked-on-the-nose corner cancellation centered at the lower left but extending up and out over the lower portion of the stamp; however, the lightness of the cancel and its hollowed-out effect leaves the main images remarkably clear, stamp was soaked from the mailing envelope using the Bestine solvent and placed on a piece of black trimmed card stock for an attractive and uniform album appearance, stamp has a single bent perforation at the top right, it being pressed down into is backing card stock, otherwise good perforations; centering, mounting, and largely image free cancel warrants a selling price premium. This is not a 'bait-and-switch;' the stamp you see will be the one you receive.
Please review my terms of sale. If you are not ordering from the United States, there is a $US1.55 additional postage expense that needs to be added to the price of the stamp. If you are ordering from the United States, there is only a $US0.68 added postage expense. Also, if you make additional purchases from my offerings, they can all go in one mailing at no extra shipping expense for the added purchases. I will send the purchase by US first class mail, since the relatively low value of the stamp does not warrant signature or tracking mail. Hence the buyer assumes risk of loss or non-delivery. I will keep a scan of my mailing to verify that the correct mailing address was used. If not satisfied, return the stamp to me at your own expense, and I will refund the cost, but not my postage to you. If the stamp is not as described, I will refund the cost and reimburse you for postage both ways.
By way of reference, I am an American Philatelic Society (APS) member (195176) and an American Stamp Dealers Association )ASDA) member. Thank you for looking, and I hope this is the perfect stamp to fill that gap in your collection.
