Great rarity of Japanese philately

The new "Find" of the 7th recorded copy and maybe the most beautiful one of this exceptional rarity ranking among the 3 rarest stamps of Japan. The earlier 6 copies known are all used whereof one damaged due to erasing of the cancellation. This copy is without any faults and with complete perforation. By some Japanese experts considered the best of the existing copies. Japanese catalogues JHES # 46 & JSCA # 44. Michel # 31I = Euro 250.000. Certs Eichhorn BPP and Sawa of the Japanese Philatelic Federation.

WORLD CLASS EXHIBITION RARITY
A Sensational Discovery! This find is a real story about a collector´s dream. A Sandinavian collector bought a large collection at a European auction house and when he sorted it out he put this stamp aside for future examination. It was forgotten for some time, but when getting to it, he started to realize the magnitude of it. However, still doubting and suspecting the stamp possibly not being genuine, he had to wait for further examinations by specialists. The result you can see here, he became the lucky finder of one of the great rarities of Japanese philately.
