About This Item

1840 Penny Black.

The Penny Black was the worlds first adhesive postage stamp used in a public postal system. It was issued in Britain on 1 May 1840, for official use from 6 May of that year. Contrary to most peoples beliefs it is not a rare stamp as there were over 68,000,000 copies printed. However a Mint stamp in good condition with 4 margins would cost approx. £3000/4000.
