Lot 00142

20l. grey indigo-blue on azure paper with HORIZONTALLY LAID BACKGROUND (intense) in upper marginal copy. This stamp is not the deep blue from the last 1867 setting as it can be seen from its very lightly printed CF but belongs to a previous setting, most likely 1865 as it is similar to the 80l. stamps with the same variety. RRR. (Hellas 19b).
