2¢ Carmine 5UL89

Matte states:

  • 1 Very small gap left box and 

  • 2 Lower left corner dent

Leo's Notes

  • a) The outer line of the left frame is visible opposite leaf 2. It disappears below leaf 2. As a result, the frame is thin from the middle of leaf 1 to the bottom of the 2. It is thicker from the bottom of the 2 to the corner due to retouching.

  • b) Horizontal lines in the LL spandrel are weak.

  • c) Vertical line of the LNB was retouched from just below the top to just above the bottom. It gets thicker from top to bottom.

  • d) Bottom of the left frame is retouched. It touches the bottom frame, but stops short of the bottom corner.

We use Statser to measure basic website usage without cookies. The system processes page views, clicks, form submissions without form contents, referrers, browser/device information, error pages, approximate visit duration, and pseudonymous visitor keys. Full IP addresses are not stored permanently by Statser; they are processed briefly on the server to create a pseudonymous visitor key, apply technical exclusions, and optionally resolve approximate GeoIP information. If GeoIP is enabled, the IP address is checked locally against a MaxMind GeoLite2 database to determine the approximate country or city. The visitor IP address is not sent to MaxMind. MaxMind is contacted only to download and update the GeoLite2 database. Detailed data is deleted after the configured detail retention period. For long-term trends, Statser also stores aggregated daily values without individual visitor profiles.
