Nevis 1871-78 6d grey, SG19 Bechuanaland stamps The missing gold colour resultsNevis 1876 78 6d grey, litho printing, perforations 15, block of 4, SG19. A fine mint block with large part original gum, (lower pair unmounted mint). Some traces of gum toning, as commonly seen, and minor perforation separation at top. Regardless of these minor flaws, it is still a fine and attractive multiple with particularly fresh colour. Only 1,200 stamps were printed of this issue and it is a rarity in a block.
