1884 2d Prussian blue perf. 11x12 (SG 223f) ovptd "OS" in MUH block of 12 from lower right hand side of sheet with both side & bottom selvedges. Lower selvedge has circled 1884 date to balance the monogram on the right. Top 6 stamps have diagonal crease & 3 have damaged perfs. The bottom MUH strip of 6 with date monogram & selvedge is very presentable from the front. Quite a desirable exhibition item despite its faults. Maybe the top 6 stamps could be removed? A rare survivor. SG O3d
