Spink London Sale - 24016

The 'Lionheart' Collection of Great Britain and British Empire Part XIX - April 24, 2024

We are pleased to present Lionheart part XIX, with a good selection of Great Britain with Penny Blacks, Twopence Blues, Surface Printed and finishing with a very valuable mint and used collection.

As usual there is a very good spread of British Commonwealth, some highlights this time include a superb used example of Canada 1851 12d, (S.G. 4), Gibraltar £5 block of four with plate number, a large section of India essays and reprints, a lovely example of the Jamaica 1/- with inverted frame and the hugely rare Kuweit set of ‘KOWEIT’ essays. As well as these rarities there are plenty of mint and used sets, singles and country collections from across Great Britain and the Commonwealth; something for everyone! Highlights:

  • Great Britain. 1840 One Penny Black. The "V.R" Official. EF cancelled by concentric circles cancellation, official trial with chemicals to attempt the removal of the cancellation. (Lot 5)
  • Canada. 1851 12d. black on laid paper, good to large margins and crisp impression, light central target cancellation; a very fine example of this extremely rare and coveted classic. One of the world's most iconic and desirable rarities, and an example of exhibition quality. (Lot 92)
  • Gibraltar. 1925-32 Watermark Script CA. £5 black and violet upper left corner block of four with plate number, very fresh mint with the stamps remaining unmounted; one stamp with a small gum crease, otherwise very fine. A great rarity and the finest of the three such recorded blocks. (Lot 126)
  • Jamaica. 1919-21 1/- orange-yellow and red-orange, variety frame inverted, a fine mint example with large part original gum, an important rarity with fewer than twenty known examples. (Lot 173)
