@Cupram,

If you still want to know which stamp it is. It appears to have alphanet III letters, a type I large crown and not blued paper. That would make it C9 (toned to white paper), C9A (dito), or C10 (white paper). Looking at the back, I am tempted to say it is white paper.

It is difficult to tell an exact colour from a scan, but I am tempted to put it in the rose-reds common to C10. The colours, however, are the best way to identify the stamp. These catalogue in the £ 10 - £ 20 range. The C9 is catalogued between £ 80 and £ 250, and the C9A £ 50 - £ 100.

Your Michel colour key is useless to identify the colour.

Your stamp is a very nice example and well-centred.

A pleasant surprise to finally receive help.
Unfortunately, I don't have the stamp at hand to check the color of the paper - this is simpler than the color of the stamp.
Many thanks and I wish you happy holidays.
