Several hundred different U.S. singles and coil pairs in a clean

Zeppelins (NOT counted). Several very nice 19th century
definitives noted, unused Columbians to 50¢ value, some
original gum, early 20th Century fairly strong with many
difficult to acquire items in better than usual condition.

generally fine to very fine overall.
