Block of 14 Nyasaland 1898 Cheque Stamps Setting II 1d. vermilion with pale and dark ultramarine examples on partial piece.

Cancelled full sheets have sold for $5000+. Two or three slight tears in the stamps. CV for SG55b (pale ultramarine) = GBP140; SG56 (deep ultramarine) = GBP160; both varieties in this block. Estimated CV = GBP150 X 14 stamps = $2100 if singles with no tears. But the block is much rarer. So, accounting for the block and the tears, a $2000.00 selling price is fair.
