I purchased this item on HipStamp a while back. It was advertised as J14, the 5 pence version. But it was quite easy to see that it was actually J20, 5 shillings. Quite a bit of money back in 1907. (Perf 12 x 11)
I just checked, and it is also an inverted watermark version, which is odd (but normal for this issue.)
If this has the crown over NSW watermark, then it is watermark inverted as standard. If the perf is about 11.75, the it is SG D33 and has a CV of 23 pounds for a single. If the perf is 11, you have a winner worth 250 pounds each.
Wow! Very striking! Love this site and getting to see what other countries back of the book material looks like. I'm sure the person who recived that registered item had mixed feelings. Glad to see it's here, and 20SHILLINGS!
The cancellation is what sealed the deal for me. I wish it was still on a piece as it would be nice to know what package would have been sent and waiting for a 20 shilling payment.
