image 1868 15c Grey Violet Large Queen Pair, Each Stamp with a Different Plate Flaw, a mint horizontal pair from plate positions 9-10 (with sheet margins at top and right), with full original gum, hinged. The left stamp shows plate scratches at top left, and the right stamp shows a "Pawnbroker" plate variety at lower right. There is also a diagonal scratch between both stamps, at mid level. A lovely and fresh pair, with deep rich colour, well centered and very fine. A lovely item for the Large Queen specialist, as the combination of both popular plate flaws, freshness and ideal sheet margins proving the positions make this very desirable. (Image)
