    Nyasaland - Rhodesian Force 1916: 'N.F.' on KGV 3 d. purple on yellow, extremely rare double overprint with second one shifted up 12 mm which is weakly inked but equally strongly impressed, plus tiny partial traces of third overprint at base. An exceptional item in mint condition with some overprint ink smudged on reverse as on all known examples, a great rarity as only one row of six examples is believed to be printed with such a double overprint (only a strip of 3 of such has ever been recorded, while additionally a row of 6 of a closely spaced double existed, of which all were used). Cert Ceremuga (2019) Gi = £ 22'000 for used, unpriced mint.
