Turkey / Ottoman Empire ND (1853-54) P-23 PMG Very Fine 30 10 Kurush
A very underrated type from the Ottoman empire, dating back to the 1850s. Problem-free with great eye-appeal for the assigned grade. The underprint is more vibrant on this example than either of the two examples of this Pick number we have previously offered, and may constitute a different variety (although we can not confirm so as the seal on the back, which contains the ruler and date of issue, is unclear). Regardless, a rare type surely missing from most advanced collections.
