AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Monaco 2024, Europa Cept - Rare block of 4 stamps in the corner of a sheet, "Poulpe de Méditerranée," from the First issue without the inscription "EUROPA" inserted in a nice presentation sheet with 22 positions, together with the corner block from the substitute sheet for comparison. Also attached to the shipment is the guarantee certificate.

Regarding this very rare issue, it is estimated that only 300 miniature sheets exist, as it was withdrawn from sale shortly after release because the inscription "EUROPA" had been omitted from the vignette, mandatory for stamp series dedicated to the theme "PostEurop". Subsequently the issue was reprinted correctly.

A rarity for collectors of the Europe theme and beyond.

Seller's Story

Quality Philately and Numismatics after over 50 years of activity in the sector.
