Cyprus Stamps SG 231 1963 Boy scouts 150 mils with Povey error V1

An unusual block of 16 Mint stamps from this issue of the Cyprus 1963 Boy Scouts 150 mils stamps.

Not only is it unusual to find a block of this size but this block also includes the recorded Povey error / variation V1.

That's the small black dot to the right and above the Scout emblem - but only on the 2nd stamp on the top row of the sheet. (You can see it here on the image below).

 There is some black card residue on the gum side - see image here below.

This item is currently listed on eBay auctions with a start price of £9.99 and will end on 04 Nov, 2012 20:30:29 GMT

Enjoy!
