GRI NEW GUINEA SG 15b:

$32,500.00

5/- on 5m carmine and black. No stop after “I” (setting 3), and partial stop after “R”. Fine used. B.P.A. Certificate refers to a thin and horizontal crease. Both of these are minor and do not detract from the appearance of this very attractive stamp. SG catalogue value £27,500. This stamp is ex Bute and only two examples are recorded. A great rarity.
