Investment lot. Very scarce mint NH investment group of 29 strips of five of the 14-digit code $1.20 computer vended postage stamp. The lot also includes a carefully and properly prepared set of five December 16th 2016 postmarked "in period" #8 size covers, all franked with the late 2016 issue "Landscapes by Canadian Painters" computer vended postage stamps. Each of the five covers is a different $1.20 USA rate value mailed from Vancouver BC to the US (posted from the one post office that issued these stamps). Very few people actually purchased these stamps or used these stamp dispensing machines as they were notoriously bug-laden in the early days and no first day covers of these overlooked issues were produced. Sure to become modern philatelic rarities. The mint stamps are hard to find in any quantity, wholesaling for well above the face value (original face value total of the mint is $174.00) and are also as of yet unpriced in Unitrade on cover.
