Does anyone have a catalogue that lists Specimen varieties? If I understand the Gibbons numbering system correctly, this would be SG 37s, I think, but I only have a Scott catalogue for Cyprus.



Thanks for looking!

SG 48 I'd say. The 1894-96 set of 10 were all overprinted specimen. Worth £350 for the set as opposed to £250 for a MLH set.

James Bendon's book is the bible for specimen overprints but I don't know if it lists varieties.

Hope this helps!

Thanks. I've looked around but can only find a case of the 48p having been offered for sale. Never seen a full set offered anywhere
