Ceylon. Collection used classic impressive collection primarily of QV, accompanied by some better EDVII and a little KGV on six sheets. Much of the value is in the used pence issues perf and imperf. There is also the key values 4 d and 9 d cut to shape, as well as the 2/- – of these early issues of 1857 there are well over 40 pence types, followed by a intense range of the overprint issues with huge potential here as well. Notwithstanding the cut to shape, the collection with catalogue many thousands of pounds, a recommended viewing.
