CAPE OF GOOD HOPE 1861 "Woodblock" Issue Due to the nature of the paper used for these issues many examples show irregularities, both in the form of surface pitting and in the form of pre-printing paper creases. Our descriptions usually exclude the above, any defects mentioned being those which occurred after the stamps were delivered One Penny Carmine Single, unused with part original gum, good to large margins nearly all round, just touched at upper right. A fine example of this very rare stamp of which few acceptable unused examples are recorded. Brandon Certificate (1997). S.G. 13a. Photo Estimate £ 6,000-7,000
