 | Lot #1305 RUSSIA 1969 Definitives, 4k red, horizontal block of ten (5x2), cancelled to order, n.h., v.f. This value was normally issued in coil rolls of 1,000 (with serial number applied to every fifth stamp). One sheet of 100 was also prepared and most of the stamps of this trial printing were cancelled to order, with only a few multiples surviving, this block of ten being the largest known. A modern Soviet rarity, with a regular coil strip of five (with serial number on the right stamp) is included for comparison (an unused block of four fetched $7,500 in our 2008 Shtern sale) (Zagorsky 3749var)
