Great Britain - Officials : (SG O11) 1884-88 INLAND REVENUE £1 brown-lilac (Crowns), DA, ovptd. SPECIMEN, Type 11, an incredibly rare stamp without 'specimen' overprint which catalogues at £75,000 and will cost tens of thousands of pounds to add to a collection in non specimen type - most collectors with a budget collect a 'specimen' ovpt example as this is practical and more affordable and even then can still cost thousands. This is a genuine facially fine example, thinned behind upper 'A' corner (front of stamp is unaffected) and then repaired/piece added on reverse, good colour, l.m.m. RARE. Catalogued as normal £75,000, Cat £5500 (image available)

This was probably the very last use of this rare plate before the 1d Venetian red stamp was put into circulation that same week; a very desirable cover in fine condition. (image available)
