5 gr. dark carmine, plate I, nice deep colour and good to large margins, canceled by clear central strike of boxed "ANNULATO" of Naples, which was used on uncancelled stamps on incoming mail to Naples from May 1858 till October 1860. A beautiful and very rare stamp; just 3 further stamps of Sicily have been recorded with this cancellation. Signed Alberto Diena and Colla with certificate (2011)
