1885 denominated in dollars, 25c. grey-blue, complete booklet pane plus counterfoils from the preceding pane, on gummed paper, each stamp overprinted "specimen", and showing a perforation error caused by a paper fold, only the top stamp shows a serial number (9466) with the counterfoils blank, the counterfoils from preceding page correctly numbered 9461-9465. Extremely rare being one of only a handful of recorded complete panes, and particularly desirable to demonstrate the difficulty of printing the complex numbered booklets used for this issue.
