S.G. #111 |
S.G. #111, 1914 "G.R.I./1 Shilling." surcharge on 1M Carmine, extraordinarily well centered and margined, bright fresh color, o.g., trivial h.r., extremely fine; this
stamp is the rarest of all of the values of the Samoa "G.R.I." surcharges because of an error in the first printing of 100 stamps of this value which read "Shillings" instead of "Shilling", this was corrected on the next two printings of twenty and
fifteen respectively, making a total of only 35 stamps printed with the correct surcharge; a wonderful rarity in outstanding quality; 1972 PF certificate (Scott 110a; $9,500.00). (Image) |
