1913 KGV watermark Crown CA, £10 purple and dull ultramarine. Very fine fresh mint. An exceptionally rare stamp, this being only the second example we have handled. No mint examples were present in the McFarlane or County collections. SG 99
Note: a fire destroyed the Government buildings in Zomba on the night of February 17th-18th, 1919, and it is believed the stock of £10 in the dull ultramarine colour (SG 99) was destroyed with it. The £10 issued to replace it in 1919 had the frame in 'Royal Blue' (SG 99a) and it is this colour that is usually encountered both mint and fiscally used. |
