1884 Watermark Crowns
£1 brown-lilac, SC, extremely lightly hinged (practically unmounted mint), fresh colour, well centred and with good perfs. A very fine example of this extremely rare stamp. Brandon (1993) and R.P.S. (2013) Certificates, the latter mentions "small stain on front" which we feel is unnecessarily harsh. S.G. 185, £32,000. Photo
