Great Britain # 33 Plate 225

Fine used example of the rare Plate #225 of the 1864-1879 issue Penny Red, perf 14 x 14. Plate #225 is the last plate used for this issue. This particular stamp has a very clearly printed design, with a very legible and definite "225" plate marking (not usually the case), with the cancel well clear of the right hand plate number. Missing from most collections we see. Some crackling on the reverse from left-over original gum (could be soaked if desired). Here's your chance to get a premium quality stamp to complete your plate set. 2025 Scott US$875.00 =
