I watched this video from another thread.

I had to laugh. First off, the British Guiana stamp USED TO BE the world's rarest stamp but, it was superceded by the Swedish 3 Skillings colour error. Also, the example the reporter was holding by tweezers in her hand looked like a facsimile and was in too good a shape compared to the original. Please correct me here if I am wrong, but isn't the original British Guiana rarity still in the DuPont family?

On another note, I was nervous from the beginning the way the gentleman was holding his cup of tea / coffee over a stamp album. It appeared to me that he was shaking a little and all I could think of was the cup spilling all over the album . I do my best to keep any part of my collection away from food and liquids.

Worth looking at at any rate.

If this was true, there would have been news about it in the major stamp papers / magazines etc.
