Great score Bob! Nice example of a very rare Carribean counterstamp.

It arrived in the mail today and it is in my opinion a REAL stamp on a real host worn in well and deeply patinated. Thanks to DCH for the link identifying what this was.

Incredible! Consign it to Baldwins in London. Under $50.00 ?

Actually I didn't know which country it was from but I did recognize it as a monetary fraction from the era before the numerator was expressed as a 1. That I did recognize as an English abbreviation. The font of the 2 looked old as well so I took a flyer.

I decided to add the picture from ebay so it will not dissappear.  |
