1828 (12.4) Folded letter sheet, rated “1/6” and showing the clear small red scroll WRONG DATE hs and overstruck by an inspector’s Crown also in red, very fine and very rarely found on complete covers, apparently only two such yet recorded, showpiece, an important postal history item for the connoisseur.
