Used example of the "10 CENT 10" surcharge on 3p lilac rose Seal of BC perf 12½ x 12½ with much better than normal centering. The owner notes that it is with a very rare partial strike of the No.5 Victoria Post Office hand-stamp in blue. This may well be a unique strike as the hand-stamp was usual as a Postal Frank on Express covers. The stamp has a number of blind perfs and for the record, there may be a hint of a shallow thin at the center of the bottom under the N of cents. We cannot see any surface damage to the back of the stamp, at this point, even under 15 times magnification. A welcome addition to any advanced collection. 2019 Scott $1,000.00=
