The 1880 25c Narrow/Wide 0 is scarce to begin with.

My research estimates about 1:10 of all 1880s.

A small portion of those have a A/V or "Bar V" in VICTORIA.

A rare variety that was mentioned in one line in the 2008 Charlton guide in the back variety section. It hasn't been listed in Charlton since.

This is a true "Bar V", just like the 1872 50c A/V or Bar V.

How it came to exist, is anyone's guess.

I wonder how many people know this variety even exists, and how many people own one!

Yep...and I plan to change all that :).

Many varieties should sell for 10-50x what they sell for now.

All it takes is someone to make it happen.
