TWO PENCE: 2d pale red Printed on Both Sides SG 15a with the original impression on the 'reverse' being unusually strong & orientated upright relative to the 'face', rouletting significantly misplaced so cut from the sheet to largely preserve the design, a few split roulettes, GPO cds of 1860, undercatalogued at £950. A rare & desirable error. RPSofL Certificate (1973) states "defective" which we consider to be unnecessarily harsh. Rouletting of these issues was effected with hand-held wheels & the accuracy of the process was only as good as the clerk's hand-eye coordination. Stamps with roulettes clear of the design on all side are rarely encountered. Many stamps were separated along roulettes that passed through the designs, resulting in 'deformed' impressions, or were cut from the sheets using scissors on one or more sides in an effort to retain most if not all of the design. This is not so much a 'defect' as a consequence of haphazard workmanship. It was standard practice for sheets of stamps that were underinked, printed at an angle, or with otherwise unacceptable impressions, to be turned-over and printed on the other side. In this instance, the reason for the re-printing is not obvious: the impression on the 'reverse' is well-defined & correctly orientated. Gary Diffen's example exhibited the same characteristics: he stated that there were only three examples, all used, in private hands, plus two others in the Royal Collection. We support the comment there that this stamp is easily confused with the similar error in the Second Roulettes (SG 24ab)
