The 3p brown-lilac QV Chalon, locally printed issue of 1862, with serrated rouletted 16 perforation. Perfs are in good shape, strong "Star" watermark and a nice "C" in duplex killer (Christchurch) that is clear of Queen Victoria’s face. The reverse side of the stamp is in equally above-average condition, but a previous owner identified the stamp in ink as "20d", a number that doesn’t exist in Scott or Stanley Gibbons, with an equally obsolete catalogue value. A minor blemish on an otherwise beautiful stamp. 2023 Scott US$1850.00 =
