    1847 (April 16): Lady McLeod (5 c.) blue, an unused example in a vibrant deep shade with huge margins all round for this stamp, merest ironed wrinkle on reverse mentioned solely for accuracy and in no way detracting from the marvellous appearance of this beautiful stamp. Without gum and washed to remove the Ferrari trefoil. Stamp #M2 in the census, illustrated in "Trinidad, A Philatelic History" on page 252. Sublime and exceptional, in this describer's opinion the finest known example. Cert.
