1921, Finance Fiscal 1 pia. yellow block of ten top margin, variety inverted overprint and the unrecorded variety ‘bottom row of overprint large overprint type instead of small type’. Block with nine stamps mint never hinged, strip unused. Very fine. This special feature was discovered by Max Plantinga and was a highlight of his exhibition collection, from which you can now purchase a complete page with another three-stripe stamp, which perfectly documents the large and small printing types.
