1854, 5cu orange, early printing, a gorgeous example from the left of the sheet with outstandingly wide margins on other three sides, tied to piece by circular dotted obliterator; as a result of its exceptional margins, the cleanliness and sharpness of its cancellation, this is one of the most spectacular used examples available, further enhanced by its prestigious provenance; cert.
