Hi tomiseksj, tricky one this. It's either die 1 or 2 from the size of the corner ornaments. The die 1 has heavy shading under the chin (hard to tell from the pic) and 4 lines of shading on the left hand hair ribbon (which this seems to have). The die 2 has clear shading under the neck but only two lines of shading in the ribbon. If it is the die 1 it was issued from June 1868 (don't know about usage, sorry) and in my Stan Gibb 2008 is catalogued at £7 used (off cover). Hope this helps.

Hi DavidR, I think it's die 1 as well but I'm no expert on these. By the way the SG price you quote is for postal use.
