Hello,

this Scott #324 looks really good.  Was considering getting it graded.  Gum looks original and in excellent shape but was wondering what you all thought if it might be reperfed??  Thanks!

That is well centered for this issue. I an’t tell if it’s reperfed at this resolution. The holes look natural on all sides except the top may be reperfed, but I’d need to see a closer image.

Ok.  Thanks!  I took another pic of it with a different camera and ramped up the brightness and contrast.  Hopefully this helps.

They look natural. You should also check out this video I recently made that goes over reperfing https://youtu.be/2RuL0ZInvoI

Thanks again!  I think I’m going to attempt to get it graded.  I have watched all your videos and really enjoy them and I value your perspective and expertise.  Your most recent video is what led me to ask your opinion on this stamp here.  Thank you again Sir!

Thanks for watching Darin! Yes this one is a beauty. I would expect at least a 95 if sound. Is it NH?

Yes.  NH and gum looks pristine and original.  I’m going to send it off today.  Thanks for your opinion!  Really appreciate it!  Would be great if it checked out 95 or higher!
