ABOUT THE STAMPS
GB QUEEN VICTORIA SG 8, Plate 37(Typically classified as 1d Red-Brown or Orange-Red from the imperforate Die I era).
Corner Letters: J-C. On this layout, P indicates the row position, and J indicates the column position.
Sheet Position: Row 10( J is the 10th letter of the alphabet), Column 3( C is the 3rd letter of the alphabet).
Plate Number: This stamp is from Plate 37(classified as Stanley Gibbons Specialized Spec. BS26). This plate was printed during the late 1840s, and its specific identity is confirmed by the distinct placement, shape, and alignment of the manually punched corner letters. Plate 37 is a scarcer and much more desirable printing plate. This plate has “Double Dot” in the left top corner star.
Cancellation: Numeral №. 75. Birmingham Head Post Office(GPO numeric allocation)
Errors: The plate 37 come with double dot in the left top corner with star.
Margins: The stamp is an "imperforate" issue, meaning it was cut from sheets with scissors rather than torn along perforations. Stamp has close margins.
Because this stamp is a premium 4-margin example with highly visible plating varieties (the double dots in the star box) and quite clean Birmingham numeric cancel, it carries a noticeable premium over later runs in such condition generally commands between £45.00 and £75.00 from collectors who hunt for early plate varieties.
