    1858/79: 1 d. red, pl. 116, lettered AA, Imperforate 'Cardiff Penny', corner marginal from top left of sheet with imprint 'PRICE Per Lab(el)'', large margins all round, fresh and extremely fine - a great rarity as the issued stamp: this is not the Imprimatur (which was in the Beaumont collection) as it is on significantly thicker paper and bears large part original gum. Trace of crease in margin and small hole in upper margin well away from the design, neither detracting from the marvellous appearance, a superb example of this very rare error and probably the finest known.
