Item Description
Stanley Gibbons identifies two types of overprints. Type A has the "B" of BRITISH positioned directly over the "M" of SOMALILAND. Type B has the "B" of BRITISH positioned over the "OM" of SOMALILAND. In some cases, the "B" is not clearly in either position, but somewhere between. There are other undocumented (as far as I know) variations in the sizes and vertical positioning of the overprint letters.This stamp has original gum, hinge remnants and a small, light pencil notation. These spots line up perfectly with the lines of the watermark. A few perf tooth tips are slightly darkened. The extreme upper left-hand corner has a very light crease.
There are light gray spots on the king's neck and in the decorative border near his forehead, but these are directly related to the very clear star-shaped watermark.
You may combine this item with other stamp sale lots to save on shipping. Thank you for looking.
All stamps are carefully packaged for safe delivery.

- Shipping Instructions
- About 3½ years ago, I stopped selling and shipping outside the US due to new postal rules and rapidly rising costs. The USPS is raising postal rates again in January 2019. Today, December 25, 2018, due to the continuing rise in the cost of postage and associated fees, I am reluctantly raising my general shipping fee for the first time in many years. My sales here at HipStamp involve no additional charge for the purchase of multiple stamps. Shipping is via USPS unless otherwise specified. Be sure to contact me before making your purchases if you have questions.
