1253 og S.G. #69 imageS.G. #69, 1907 2p Dull and bright purple, watermarked multiple crown and "CA", a fresh mint example of this enormously rare stamp which was never issued to the public, with only 18 of this value and the 4p ever reaching the philatelic marketplace, and with singles of each in the British Philatelic Library Collection, plus a set of singles and blocks of four in the Royal Collection, this leaves a mere 12 examples of each value available to collectors; strong fresh colors, o.g., bottom left corner perforation tip has been added to a slightly rounded corner to preserve this stamp's overall very fine appearance; ex-Lilly (Scott #71; $7,250.00).
