Mafeking Siege: 1 Shillings January 1900, prefix A, 'Issued by the Authority of Colonel R.S.S. Baden-Powell', with embossed 'Bechuanaland Protectorate / One Penny' embossed stamp duty stamp, with numbered counterfoil at left, showing it came from a special booklet (most of these notes were issued in stapled pads without any counterfoil). Choice UNC in absolutely pristine fresh original condition. P-S651a cat US$1500+++ plus large premium for the intact counterfoil. This originates from a partial booklet ex John Ineson collection, and previously no examples with intact counterfoils were recorded. Mafeking notes extremely rare in such high grade - previous examples from same source sold for between $1700 - $2800 + commission in our earlier auctions. 2018 Ceremuga certificate of authenticity.
