Lot 61707 – 1856 1r vermilion, four unused examples in two different shades

1856 1r vermilion, four unused examples in two different shades, showing specific flaws which are not common to the other values, supporting the theory that the higher ‘Diligencia’ values were printed from separate stones prepared using transfers of the original 60c stone, incl. pos. 3 featuring colourless line in centre left border, pos. 5 showing high crooked “0” of “80”, pos. 16 with broken “0” of “80” and pos. 29 featuring flaw in top right spandrel; three examples with tiny thin spot, a fault very often encountered in this issue.
