Canada #791var 30c Multicoloured Queen Elizabeth II, 1977-1982 Floral & Environment Issue, A VFNH Single Deep Magenta On LF3/MF6-fl Paper, Unlisted & Scarce

A VFNH single of the 30c multicoloured Queen Elizabeth II from the 1977-1982 Floral & Environment Issue deep magenta on LF3/MF6-fl paper, unlisted & scarce. Unitrade lists a LF paper, but it is generally DF with a sparse concentration of LF or MF fibres. This paper has a low density concentration of MF fibres, giving it an unmistakeable MF glow on the back. From the front it is a clear LF also, whereas most 791's are dull on the front.

Unitrade does not list this variety. Our estimate of the value is $5. The stamp offered here grades 75 as follows:

Centering/Margins: 45/70
