    4 bani blue, used example showing the 'Major Retouch' from Stone A, with dots for horizontal lines above a crushed right hand numeral '4' and retouched 'I' in 'Bani', four margins with a couple of tiny identations in margins and diagonal ironed crease not detracting from the appearance of this rarity, cancelled by large part Bucharest datestamp leaving the retouched area clear. Exceptional and particularly scarce adhesive (laughably under-catalogued by Stanley Gibbons as SG 66a at £ 325!) and the third example this describer has handled of the few recorded examples (two are shown in Heimbüchler on page 199, another was ex 'Cornelia' (lot 7172) and a vertical pair was in Ferrary's collection (November 1924). Cert. Heimbüchler (2014).
