Note: This error was first reported by the "Australian Philatelist" in August 1906 and listed in the Stanley Gibbons catalogue in 2003. Although the Brusden White catalogue states that around a dozen examples are estimated to exist, auction records can only conclusively track five singles and a pair, all used at Kadina between September and November 1904.
