GREAT BRITAIN TWO PENCE (2d) Blue Re-entries
The Two Penny Blues of Great Britain are another interesting source of re-entries.
While the number of re-entries on this value pales in comparison to the One Penny, there are some lovely re-entries to be found. We start off with a particularly interesting one.

Scott #29 Two Pence Blue 1858 Plate 7 G-H H-G Misplaced Entry (Dropped Roll?) This 2d shows a lovely misplaced entry with remnants of POSTAGE across the lower portion of the bust of Victoria. This was likely caused by a dropped transfer roll or the roll was rested on the plate out of position and in error, pressure was applied. Courtesy of Mitch West.
I was able to pick up a poor condition copy of this rarity on eBay recently. Luckily, it shows the details on the neck very clearly. See it below Mitch’s.
