5/-). Most probably from the De La Rue reference collection.
Fair-F, couple imperfections, separated with scissors
notwithstanding perforation! Samuel states that whilst perhaps
between 1 and 6 examples of this stamp and handstamp combination
may exist the D5 handstamp struck in either blue or red is most
unusual and particularly elusive. The coloured impression may
denote a special usage of the Specimen. A very rare group. Ex
