Description

1966 Battle of Hastings 1s3d mint n.h. lower left marginal cylinder block of 8 showing progressive gold omitted (Queen’s head) with two complete omissions and two partial omissions in the left column, with the cylinder number for gold still present, very fine and rare (Note: Although not listed by S.G. due to the possibility of the gold being removed chemically, the fact that this block shows a progression of the omission proves that this is a genuine error).

Catalogue ref: SG S.G. 712 var
