(x) South Australia
1868-79 Watermark Large Star, Perf. 11½-12½
"3-pence" on 4d. deep ultramarine printed double, excellent colour, neatly cancelled by large part Adelaide c.d.s., the odd shortish perf, fine. The finest of the three examples recorded. B.P.A. Certificate (2009). S.G. 68. Photo

Note: This error should not be confused with the double impression varieties which are prevalent in the stamps of South Australia. Occassionally, some stamps were printed double, as in the case of this example, where the complete doubling of the design can be seen at the left. This stamp is almost identical in characteristics to the Ferrari example.
