    1853: Napoleon imperf. 80 c. carmine in a tête-bêche pair, fresh copy with large margins on two sides, touched on the other sides, cancelled by neat Gros chiffre "5080" numerals of the P.O. abroad in Alexandria. Late use of this imperf. pair after the introduction of the Gros chiffre postmarks in 1863, while the perf. Napoleon definitives had already been issued. Cert. RPS (2010) Cérès 2008 = EUR 21'500 for the tête-bêche pair not taking into account the use in Egypt.
