RHODESIA 104

"The Double Heads" of Rhodesia are a traditionally popular collecting field. Printed over the course of only a few years they come in a wide variety of shades, perforations, and plate flaws. Some have vivid colours, others have a pastel hue or appear washed out. Here is a fresh example of the two and a halfpenny which is well-centered with deep colour in a shade of chalky blue and perforation 14 and full original gum which has a fairly large but also fairly light hinge mark. It is Scott #104, S.G. #134. I like the quality and colour of this stamp and offer it at:
