BRITISH EMPIRE – MINT COMMONWEALTH – ~1,500 Different, No Duplication – Here is an impressive mint selection of some 1,500 different issues with no duplication bouncing around the vast world of Commonwealth countries, neatly stacked in a stock book. While the geography is choppy with most national subsections not exceeding a hundred issues, the lot is largely composed of complete sets running to high values including mid-century definitive sets from the early reign of Queen Elizabeth II, giving this lot genuine catalog value beyond just common low-value singles.

Some of the largest national subsections include Jamaica, Kenya/Uganda and Tanzania, Malta, Nauru, Nigeria, Nyasaland, Rhodesia(s), St. Helena, St. Kitts, St. Lucia, St. Vincent (one of the biggest within), Seychelles, and others, providing geographic breadth across African, Caribbean, and Pacific Commonwealth territories. This makes the lot equally attractive to the collector looking to strengthen the ratio of mint material in a Commonwealth portfolio across multiple countries simultaneously and to the dealer or accumulator seeking organized sets with strong catalog backing. Condition throughout is generally Very Fine, original gum, most never hinged.
