VERY FINE. AN EXTREMELY RARE EXAMPLE OF THE THIRD WATERMARK TEN-SHILLING DISPLAYING TWO PRONOUNCED ADDITIONAL KISS PRINTS OF THE FRAME, IN ADDITION TO THE BASIC DESIGN.
This fascinating stamp shows a marked vertical kiss print extending virtually the full height of the pink colored design. And there is also a second kiss print 1.5mm to the left of the other kiss print. While less pronounced, this additional kiss print can easily be seen both above and below the coastlines and below the value circle. The only other examples of this variety we have ever seen are incorporated into the famous ex Arthur Gray JBC monogram block of six with small OS” punctures. The right four stamps within the Gray monogram block show traces of the additional kiss prints, with the bottom right stamp in that block being most pronounced. The stamp offered here could possibly be the only known mint non-”OS” kiss print recorded.
