CYPRUS 1881 6pi olive-grey, SG15

This is a finely used Cyprus 1881 6pi olive-grey stamp with a bold '969.' cancellation, fulfilling higher-rate postal and fiscal purposes. It is scarce and valuable.

• The description claims that used examples are scarcer than their catalogue value suggests.
• The description claims that large, legible numeral cancels on higher values are increasingly hard to find, especially without heavy smudging or ink saturation.
