Item Description
A very well centered and face free used example of this value in the deep bright blue shade, on Duckworth paper 6, measuring 0.0035" thick, and showing two full letters of the watermark inverted - the L and U of Clutha. This is significant because most of the watermarked stamps show only a portion of 1 or 2 letters, not two full letters like this one. Even fewer would be well centered and have a light a cancellation as does this stamp, leaving the design and beautiful colour clearly visible. 2014 Unitrade values a VF-75 used example at $600. The stamp offered here grades VF-78 as follows:
Centering/Margins: 40/60
Paper Freshness: 5/5
Colour: 5/5
Impression: 5/5
Absence of Visible Paper Flaws: 5/5
Perforations: 8/10
Cancellation: 10/10
