outstanding condition; signed H. Bloch (Scott #4; $1,200.00). (Image) |

S.G. #12 |
 S.G. #12, 1874 "Three Pence" provisional surcharge on
1p Rose red, a handsome mint example of this important rarity, with
strong rich color, centered a bit to left as all known genuine examples are
found, all having come from a single pane of 60, large part o.g., small
h.r., actually very fine and among the best examples known; only a
lower left pane of 60 received this provisional surcharge, and of this
population there are three blocks of four known, as well as the unique
block of six, leaving only a possible 42 singles in existence, however
nearly ten used examples are thought to exist and surely there as been some
natural attrition, leaving scant few mint singles available for collectors;
signed by both H. Bloch and Stanley Gibbons, and accompanied by a 1985 RPS
certificate; ex-Prappas (Scott #11; $18,000.00). (Image) |

mint example, possessing strong vibrant color and impression on bright
paper, attractively centered, o.g., nearly very fine for this, particularly
when one compares this to most existing copies, many of which are found
terribly off center, without gum and/or with faults (Scott #12;
$2,750.00). (Image) |
