Two complete VF MNH sheets of 25 of the 1983 issue $2.00 Commonwealth Day high value commemorative with inscriptions in all four corners. Valued by Unitrade catalogue as 8 inscription blocks and 18 singles. Except for the 1976 Olympic $1.00 and $2.00 stamps, these were the first $1.00+ face value commemoratives since the 1897 Jubilees! Since then, the Post Office seems to have since then fallen love with issuing all kinds of high value commemoratives but none are as scarce as this early 80's tribute to the British Commonwealth of Nations! 2023 Unitrade =
