Description
THE UNIQUE INVERTED SHEET OF THE FAMOUS WITHDRAWN ISSUE
2004 €0.65 Sampanis Leonidas complete sheet of 20 with INVERTED PRINTING from the local digital printing at Thessaloniki (with city symbol at the lower right of both panes).
The local digital printing began on the 18th of August only one day after Sampanis won his medal, but sales were suspended at 3pm on the 23rd, after he twice failed a drugs test and had his gold medal stripped from him.
Also including the normal sheet of 20 from Thessaloniki, which currently catalogues at €600 for one sheetlet pane in Hellas. Only 1’000 sheets were printed at Thessaloniki, and due to their quick and unexpected withdrawl, complete sheets are rare.
A spectacular modern error and unique exhibition item for collectors of modern Greece issues or Olympics.
If desired, this lot can be offered for auction as two separate panes. Vente aux enchères
