Great Britain. One penny black, plate V, wonderful block of four.

One penny black, plate V, wonderful block of four, on all sides perfect margins, right with parts of the neighbour, unused with slightly sounded original gum, left lower stamp with tiny thin place and minimum gum crease, effectively meaningless, wonderful fresh colors.
Already unused single pieces of the first stamp of the world are very rare.
Blocks of four to class among the all large rarities Europe, whereby it be here about an especially attractive copy act. This high-level piece made a fuss already the collections from Ernest Dale, Fisher and Sayeed.

Great Britain - Official stamps 1902

GREAT BRITAIN, Official, 1902, 10s ultramarine

GREAT BRITAIN, Official, 1902, 10s ultramarine, overprinted "I.R. Official", raised period after "R", watermarked Anchor, perf. 14, unused without gum, with 1990 Heinz Georg Richter certificate which states "unused in perfect condition," also with 2010 BPA certificate, this one stating "pressed crease at upper left and color a little faded," quite harsh in our opinion as the color is perfectly even and crease totally marginal, hence Very Fine. A rarity from Great Britain, missing in most major collections as only 7 (!) examples have been recorded, apparently all without gum. A note from the BPA identifies this copy as position 1 of the block sold in 1947 by Harmer Rooke, pencil signed Hebert Bloch. SG No. O26a; L120,000 (173,940 CHF). Est. 50,000 - 75,000 CHF
