    1906: 5 m. scarlet & black, fine used example with variety: 'Amry' for 'Army', lightly cancelled in black leaving the variety clear. Slight corner crease at upper left otherwise fresh and very fine. Only known in used condition, an extremely rare stamp with just three recorded examples Cert. RPS (1962), BPA (2000) Gi = £ 2'750.

    Note: The Setting is 'Wide A' and Long Tailed ''y', the same as the UPU Specimen set. The varieties from this setting are therefore believed to be from the First Setting. Colonel Danson recorded just three examples of this variety, all used. Since the scarcity is much greater than 1 in 30 examples (the size of the setting), it must be conjectured that these errors were noticed in the first setting and corrected.
