Item Description
Two very fine LH examples of the 3C CARMINE QUEEN ELIZABETH II STAMP FROM THE 1954-63 WILDING ISSUE, IN PLATE 1 UPPER RIGHT (UR) AND UPPER LEFT (UL) BLOCKS OF 4. The upper left block is printed on horizontal wove paper giving a dull-fluorescent ivory reaction under ultraviolet light and showing clear ribbing on the front and back. The upper right block is printed on smooth horizontal wove paper showing mesh only when held up to the light and giving a low fluorescent bluish white reaction under UV. This paper also contains a low density concentration of low fluorescent fibres, a sparse concentration of medium fluorescent fibres and a very sparse concentration of high fluorescent fibres. Smooth yellowish cream coloured gum on the UL block and very shiny cream gum on the UR block. 2015 Unitrade values VF-75 NH blocks at $26.80 and the NH stamps at $26. The hinging is confined to the selvage - the stamps are NH. The blocks offered here grade 80 as follows:
Centering/Margins: 50/70
Paper Freshness: 5/5
Colour: 5/5
Impression: 5/5
Absence of Visible Paper Flaws: 5/5
Perforations: 10/10
Note: the above scan is a stock photo as are all my scans for material after 1952. The block you will receive have been carefully checked to adhere to the above grading standards, so while it may not be exactly the same, it will be of the same quality. Also, I do not provide back scans of NH stamps or blocks after 1952 unless they are required to illustrate some attribute of the paper of gum.
