Lot 1339 Extensive Collection of 2-Ring Numerals on Large Queen Stamps, all neatly organised on four double-sided black stock sheets. There is a total of 243 stamps with all the 2-ring numbers represented except nos. 16, 17, 20, 37, 42. There is duplication, but almost always on different denominations, shades or papers, and there is a detailed spreadsheet accompanying the lot which lists every number and which stamps are included. A good proportion of the strikes are easily readable, but some are not, for example the 2-ring 50, and others. Overall nice quality lot, and careful examination is recommended to better appreciate the value of the collection, as it contains many valuable stamps and postmarks. Estimate $1,000, sold for C$1,350.00 plus 17% buyer’s premium.
