Description
harbourstamps store An extremely rare example of the Great Britain 10 Shillings Grey green, Plate 1, Wmk. Anchor, very fine fresh mint o.g. imperforate from the imprimatur sheet, overprinted 'SPECIMEN' type 9. Just 10 stamps were originally removed from the imprimatur sheet. Highmore requested a further eight stamps, five to be overprinted 'SPECIMEN', although it is thought that all eight may have been so overprinted. Some of these are in institutionalized collections, making this one of the very few overprinted stamps in private hands. Lettering BE (this stamp) is recorded as being one of these 'SPECIMEN' overprinted letterings, the only other recently confirmed example in private hands being BA. A most important example of British & world philately, accompanied by a 1995 British Philatelic Association certificate.
