Description
Great Britain 1876 4d vermilion Plate 5 imprimatur, SG152var.
A very fine and fresh unused, with original gum, imperforate imprimatur lettered 'BJ'.
Very rare as one of only 22 possible examples, many of which are in institutionalised collections.
A most attractive Queen Victoria surface printed stamp from the first approved printing sheet.
The 1876 4d vermilion is an "abnormal" stamp resulting from the perforating and issuing of one or more sheets which had been run off the plate at the same time as the imprimatur sheet.
Accompanied with a 2005 Royal Philatelic Society (RPS) Certificate of Authenticity.
