JUST 17 AVAILABLE - GB 1840 Twopenny Blue
Two Penny Blue stamps are over ten times as rare than their historic counterpart, the Penny Black.
Issued in 1840 just hours after the lower denomination Penny Black, it is undoubtedly one of the most famous British stamps ever produced.
In fact, this remarkable stamp is one that every esteemed collector acknowledges as the height of philately.
And today, just 17 collectors can secure a fine example of this Twopenny Blue with three clear margins.
Here’s why you need one for your collection:
- Issued just hours after the Penny Black in 1840, the purpose of the Twopenny Blue was used for sending heavier, larger “double rate” letters.
- This example is an 1840 original – the first year of issue – and is therefore highly sought after.
- In fact, considering they were only in production for less than a year, only small quantities were ever produced.
- The 1840 2d Blue can be distinguished from later stamps as it does not feature the horizontal white lines above and below the Queen’s head that were introduced in 1841.
