That's...something.
I suspect it was created by someone who was not completely clear that Mauritius stamps were not denominated in cents until 1878, and even then, there was no 9-cent value depicting Victoria.
There were nine-pence issues under the old currency in 1860 and 1872, but in a different design, to much higher production values (De La Rue).
That is a strange piece.
