Cat No:5

1862 2d rose Queen Victoria, Perforated 11.7, a mint sheet of 60, with full original gum, never hinged. The sheet has its full selvedge on three sides, with light toning in places in selvedge only, and the stamps are overall fine centred (and catalogued as such). We noted many printing varieties, some of which include pos. 4 (flaw in tiara), pos. 10 (dot between I and S), pos. 30 (thin "T"), pos. 32 (white spot at top of head), pos. 39 (dot at left of "S" of POSTAGE), pos. 45 (spot behind head), pos. 48 (slash in "E"), and does not show the constant flaw in "O" of TWO of pos. 54, and thus is probably from an early printing. A nice sheet. (Image)
