415 1980 Sport
Centenaries 15p
Boxing with the variety �Gold (Queen�s head)
omitted, very fine unmounted
mint.
This example comes from a
presentation pack which was bought from the
Post Office in 1980. It has
remained in its original pack from that time until
the collection was brought to
us for sale.
For a long time after these
stamps were issued only one example of the missing
gold was known, its source
unreported. Another was found, reportedly also in
a presentation pack, given a
certificate in 1999, and sold at auction in 2004.
This example now being offered
is therefore the third recorded example.
The stamp has been given a BPA
certificate (2015) stating �variety Gold
(Queen�s head) omitted (SG
1136a), unused with original gum, is genuine�.
Undoubtedly a modern
for eleven years.

by postal buyers.
In order to deal with postal clients, our bid
forms have been designed to make space for
credit or debit card instructions.
If you want your purchases charged in this way,
please complete the appropriate section.
Do not complete these details unless you
want to pay by card, and to
have the lots posted.
We have negotiated good rates with our bank, and
are able to absorb the bank charges for this
service ourselves, and therefore there is no
additional charge for the use of this facility,
as long as postal bidders give us their details
in advance of posting. Only for postal
buyers where credit card details are given after
posting, we will charge 1.9%
extra (Visa/MasterCard), plus cost of
posting receipt slip.

FORTHCOMING AUCTIONS; Our next auction is planned for 12
October
This auction is
conducted according to the �Philatelic Auctioneers
Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale� (available
if requested), with the exception of Clause 6,
where �Scottish� should be substituted for
�English�.
A Buyer�s Premium of 10% (inclusive
of global v.a.t.) will be added to the sale price
of all lots.
Telephone bids are accepted, but must later
be confirmed in writing. Alternatives and limits are
accepted.
Material can
be accepted at any time for inclusion in future
sales. Our commission is 10% of the sale price,
plus administration fee of �1.20 per lot + �5.50
per vendor (all plus v.a.t.). Full details on
request.
We DO NOT charge buyers a handling charge
per lot, nor is there VAT added to any sale
prices.
Please bid early. In the case of
equal bids, the lot will be sold to the person
whose bid was received first (unless free bidding
in the room equals the top book-bid, although the
Auctioneer will try to regulate the bidding in
such a way as to avoid this).
Apart from viewing the lots in person, you
can get a better description of any lot, by
telephoning or writing. (Photocopies are
available, at a charge of 15p per copy
(colour copies A4 pages; 1st copy �1, 50p
per page thereafter), plus postage.

postal buyer) will attract interest at the rate of
2% per month or part thereof.
