1887 Unappropriated Dies
1/- green and black with "postage &" deleted in red ink, cancelled with Mafeking c.d.s. and with red crayon line suggesting fiscal usage; a couple of faults though interesting and unusual. Photo

Note: Holmes states that these stamps were available for use from 1 September, however they could not legally be sold as postage stamps until 1 November, they were thus used as fiscal stamps before that date
