The embossed issues of Natal have been unjustly shunned by many collectors as they are not exactly attractive due to the design being embossed (often weakly) rather than printed. However, the 2 top values rank among the rarest of the classic issues of the world, & are in fact rarer than more famous items such as the Hawaii 5c or 13c "Missionaries". Of the 9d it is estimated that there is a total of less that 30 genuine examples in existence, most in rather poor condition, & few would be sound examples on piece as this stamp is. An important classic rarity! 2007 Ceremuga photo-cert. (P) .......................... $3000 ----- $5000 3085 1857-61 Arms 1/- buff embossed.

(P) ..................... $3500 ----- $5000 3086 1857-61 usage of Arms 3/- white embossed, from the revenue issue on laid paper. Superb U with absolutely huge margins on all sides, tied by 2 strikes of "Post Office / Ladysmith" in red. One assumes that some larger package was being sent and the sender or postal clerk decided that it is simpler to use this 3/- instead of multiples of lower values (or due to temporary shortage of them). While the embossed postage stamps only went up to the 1/- value, to a non-philatelist the "postage" and the "revenue" stamps would have looked part of the same issue. The rarity of this item is twofold, first the "Post Office / Ladysmith" is an extremely rare pmk known in only a tiny number of examples (this piece has 2 nice strikes in red!), second this is the only recorded example of the 3/revenue with any Post Office cancel! Bft 7, SG unlisted but its value would have to be rated in comparison to the rarity of the 9d or the 1/stamps. An amazing & unique 1st issue postal fiscal usage! 1993 BPA & 2006 Ceremuga photo-certs.

While there are some "cheap" UN examples of the £5 & £10 values available from company display boards & from sample panes ex printers archives, there are no such examples of the £20, and furthermore no examples exist opt/perf specimen either (nor any postally used or CTO), so there is no cheap way of completing a mint collection. Looking through the major auctions in Europe & USA of British Empire material of the past decade we see that it was absent from such major collections such as Samos, Gibraltar, Rubin, Tompkins, Gawaine Baillie etc. A unique opportunity to obtain a magnificent example of this exceptional rarity. 2002 BPA & 2009 Ceremuga photo-certs.
