#19c, 1886 "One/Cent/Perak" surcharge on 2c Rose, "One" inverted (S.G. type 26), very fresh and attractive being well centered for these issues, o.g., l.h., very fine; a most unusual error as this three-line surcharge was in a setting all printed at once, it is believed that this error occurred when the type of the "One" dropped out and was replaced upside down; a choice example of an exceptionally rare error; signed Holcombe (S.G. #29a; £3,500).
