A superb mint example with original gum and vibrant colour. A very difficult to find classic Victorian stamp. The 5 shilling rose is notoriously difficult to find on blued paper. The later issue on white paper is much easier to find and of significantly less value. Accompanied with a 2017 Brandon Certificate of Authenticity. Stanley Gibbons catalogue value: 12,500.
