M14

1939, Army Post, King Farouk, 3m green (Scott M14), tied on a neat unsealed cover by a Feld Post Office 171 [Royal Air Force base, Heliopolis] c.d.s., Oct 25 1940 with a violet "Passed By Unit 175 Censor" handstamp, to Coleraine, Northern Ireland, Very Fine. One of only 12 known covers.
SG A14; £1,450 ($1,940).

The 3m stamp was issued on December 16, 1939, and was intended for unsealed Christmas/New Year military mail to the U.K. However, since it was really too late for Christmas mail to reach it's destination on time, the stamp was withdrawn and re-released in October of 1940. However, shortly after that, Military Mail was allowed to be sent postage-free and very few postally used examples are known—and only 12 legitimate covers. (Image) (Image2)
