unused 1c Green (498 var.), 99 stamps taken from the same sheet (77 singles, blocks of four and six, two plate no. blocks of six), all with the same dramatic printing variety that resembles a light double impression to a greater or lesser degree on each stamp (due to a second pass under the inking roller and/or against the blanket rather than having actually been printed a second time and, therefore, not a true double impression), the backs of most stamps are coated with a solid layer of green printing ink due to having been caught in the press, some stamps have faults from production, the vast majority are fine-very fine, very unusual and desirable freaks est.
