1895 First Issue
10c. orange-brown, perf.11, in a complete sheet of one hundred with margins all round and features the variety imperforate between stamp and top margin; with full original gum. This sheet clearly demonstrates the complete setting of twenty clichés applied three times to the sheet, with all of the associated positional varieties including the three different types, including broken "a" and broken "e". There are a few faults including a tear near the lower corner, nevertheless a fine and important sheet, thought to be one of only two recorded and the only examples of the imperforate between stamp and top margin
