  1840 2d blues 
LC2ga
Plate 2 GA - beautifully fresh stamp in deep blue with 4 good to large margins, tied to a 7th March 1842 cover from Cuparangus to Blairgowrie by a fine crisp black MX. There is the faintest trace of a very light crease or enclosre bend at the rhs of the stamp, but this not visible to the naked eye, and thus does not detract from a visually most attractive cover. At a little over10% cat, this one is a true bargain.265.00
