Fabulous 1966-1990 Mint / NH Collection Many hundreds, all in black mounts and housed in a Scott Specialty album, high degree of completion for period covered, including a dazzling array of the surcharges, overprints and combination thereof, many of which are very difficult to obtain and to have such extensive showing makes it the more impressive. Includes sheetlets, souvenir sheets, as well as long definitive sets such as Orchids & Flowers series which were countless times surcharged and / or overprinted over a span of many years. Apart from a few earlier sets being mint LH there is a very high percentage being mint NH. An excellent opportunity to acquire a remarkable country collection of this challenging modern era. Routinely VF throughout. (Scott US$5,829) (Image)
