Feeding Frenzy In Australia Over The 2016 30c Provisionals

I posted this on 03/05/2016

Let me check my Crystal Ball,

OK, I can see,

December 31st. 2016

any mint single, A$ 175.00
set of mint singles, A$ 1,000.00
used single, A$ 100.00
set of used, $ 750.00

early cover, up to 8th. January A$ 2,500.00
later cover. A$ 500.00

on piece with any 70c. early date A$ 350.00
later date, A$ 150.00

So far, as far as I know all items have been sold by finders, Glen who acquired from finders and a few resellers, none have been sold at any Auction Houses,

I will check next New Years Day and see how far out I was but I doubt many will be sold as most have gone to collectors and they will be holding onto them for a long time for their collection not for resale,

You can now show what your Crystal Ball shows and we can compare then.

NOT TOO FAR OUT, MOST CURRENT PRICES EXCEED MY CRYSTAL BALL,


for those who have plenty of time on their hands,

Pagoda

The used counter printed 30c tied to a 70c gummed stamp sold on ebay 2nd time round for $350.

KGV,

was it an early January date,

Pagoda

No not a Jan cancel. It has a very clear 7th Mar 2016 5000.

A great kiloware find for me. It really is a 1 in 20 million find.

I had that down on my Crystal Ball at $150.00, that is over double,

late dates turn up because of legal companies sending out of self addressed envelopes,

Pagoda

Interesting pagoda.

The image of the stamps on piece is on the previous page.

And it is truly a kiloware find by me. That charity collects from all states it seems accept Tas W.A. & N.T.

Am at present collecting the 20c Big Pineapple printing error. Have found about 6 of them so far but in the koas here am having trouble finding two of them.

Stanley Gibbons will not classify them as they identify the stamps as labels and though they have the stamps listed there is no value given.

The ACSC series of Queen Elizabeth II catalogue ends at 2001. 1952-1966; 1966-1975; 1975-1991; 1992-2001; and a revised edition of the 1952-1966 published in 2015.

There is no news of the QE II series continuing from 2001; until it is listed in the ACSC paying such exorbitant amounts of money for these emergency issues I feel is too much a risk.
