Great Britain 1870 1/2d Rose red Plate 8, SG48.
Very fine unmounted with full original gum block of four lettered FK-GL. Usual crazed and off white gum associated with this printing plate, nevertheless a very scarce multiple.
The Stanley Gibbons catalogue price for a single stamp is £600 meaning no premium has been attached to reflect the fact this block of four is substantially more scarce than the single stamps of the printing plate of this issue.
Provenance: Ex. "Verus"
