ABOUT THE STAMPS
Sg.43/44, Pl.101 refers to a classic piece of British philatelic: the Great Britain Queen Victoria 1d (One Penny) Red stamp, indexed by Stanley Gibbons (SG) as catalogue numbers SG 43 or SG 44, explicitly printed from Plate 101.
First issued in 1864, these specific variants are famous for having the plate numbers engraved directly into the lace-work design on both sides of the stamp.
Stamp Type: Great Britain Queen Victoria "Four Corner Letter" Penny Red.
Issue Date: Plate 101 was put to press on 1 December 1864 and approved for use.
Stanley Gibbons Cat No: SG 43 (Watermark Large Garter / Die II) or SG 44 (often used to designate specific shade variations, errors, or paper types).
Scarcity & Rarity:
Plate 101 is a very common, standard plate. Unlike the legendary, ultra-rare Plate 77 or the highly valuable Plate 225, standard used examples of Plate 101 are highly affordable and readily available for collectors, typically valued at just a few pounds.
Known Varieties & Errors
Plate 101 is common, specialized collectors look for premium varieties:
Inverted Watermark (SG 43wi / 44wi): A highly sought-after error where the paper's watermark is upside down.
A Plate 101 stamp can be highly prized if it features an unusual or experimental postmark, such as a Rideout Experimental Machine cancellation or an Oxford Union Society official overprint
Cancellations: Items tied to historical envelopes or bearing crisp, collectable "Spoon" or town postmarks add substantial historical value.
