the sheet a little into the design at top & base, minor separation faults at lower corners, large-part gum, unpriced unused by Gibbons. Unrecorded unused by Ron Butler and the only recorded example so it should be rated RRRRRR. Ex 'Besancon': sold
for SFr605. Chris Ceremuga Certificate (2018) states "Great rarity...original gum". Absent from Don Pearce's collection.
We agree with the 'Besancon' assessment that this is "not a pretty stamp". However, with the same degree of rarity as the British Guiana 1c magenta, we would opt for this stamp on every level. (Image1) (Image2)
