Inverted Head 4 Annas

Inverted Head 4 Annas
Sir Bartle Frere (1815–1884), of the East India Company, the Chief Commissioner of Sindh / Public domain · resizedfile

The Inverted Head Four Annas of India is a postage stamp prized by collectors. The 1854 first issues of India included a Four Annas value in red and blue. It was one of the world's first multicolored stamps; the Basel Dove preceded it by nine years. However, an invert error occurred during production, showing the head "upside down."
