Hi Guys, SG claims that the UM sheet has only 12 in existence in the world, how does one verify that information? Does anyone know how many imperf sheets exist on the first day cover? I have been trying to find this information online to no avail. TIA

My understanding is that the SG information draws in what is recorded by Pierron.

Their website did mention something about Pierron. I wonder if SG's claims have ever been proven wrong before. The imperf on FDC is said to have only 2 in existence in the world, can that be real?

Btw just to sidetrack, SG in Singapore seem to be in some kind of receivership, I emailed them and the mail was directed to PWC. Don't follow the stock market but I don't think SG are doing very well financially.

If there are only a dozen, two on FDC wouldn't seem oddly low.

Just amazed at how cheap these are for their rarity.

I would take SG's word, lacking any reason to query it. They aren't infallible, but as authorities go, thay are pretty high up there.
