Photo Estimate £ 1,800-2,000Note: The variety was discovered by the printer who in most cases removed the stamp by cutting or roughly tearing it out of the sheets before delivery to the Post Offices, therefore nearly all of the known examples especially of the higher values are cut or have perforation defects.
