1855: 1 s. yellow green, London Printing, watermark Large Star,
imperforate, unused, with part original gum, good balanced margins
all around, pleasing fresh colour, extremely rare, being one of
only two examples believed extant with original gum, an exceptional
classic stamp. Cert. Odenweller (2012) Gi. = £60,000. Note: The
accompanying certificate (2012) records this stamp has "probably
the only example with original gum." A second example, described as
having "small part original gum," and accompanied by a Royal
Philatelic Society London certificate, was sold in the "Pegasus"
Collection (Spink London, January 24, 2019, lot 536)
