Here's an unusual collectible and a refreshing change from your run-of-the-mill First Day Cover.
This is a First Day Dated stamp with an actual original Bullseye or Socked-On-The-Nose first day cancellation that landed directly on the stamp itself.
Stamp: Sc. #1339 - Illinois Statehood 6¢ commemorative
Postmark: Shawneetown, Illinois - February 12, 1968
Condition: XF, I'd say, with 100% of the first day CDS appearing on the stamp. Stamp is off-cover and ungummed.
MULTIPLE ITEM SHIPPING DISCOUNT: I will ship up to 5 Bullseye (SOTN) stamps for the single base shipping charge shown. For purchases of more than 5 stamps, the shipping charge will increase by just a small increment for every 5 additional stamps.
