THE 1893 FIVE DOLLAR COLUMBIAN ISSUE
THE UNIQUE BOTTOM IMPRINT AND
PLATE NUMBER BLOCK OF EIGHT

Scott No. 245  The Five Dollar Columbian is one of the most popular values of all the commemorative issues. To our knowledge there are only four plate number blocks in existence. Three of those are blocks of six; with this being the only plate number block of eight! This block has traces of original gum and is very fine in regard to centering. This legendary plate block was once part of the great Col. Green collection. This is a major rarity of extreme importance to the plate number block collector.
