One of the most valuable stamps of Britain has been sold out for 400,000 Euros by a stamp dealer from Jersey. The Pale Dull Purple stamp was sold by the company Stanley Gibbons Investment to a private buyer who was anonymous.

The issue date of that stamp was 14 March of 1904 but its use was stopped just after a small span of time after its issue.  Sources have said that only 19 sheets were printed and almost all of them were destroyed at the time of withdraw of that stamp.

Mr. Keith Heddle who is the director of the stamp dealer firm Stanley Gibbons Investment has said that the Pale Dull Purple 6d stamp is the most valuable stamps in the world and is very hard to find almost impossible for anyone to have it.

The number of published stamps was very low and almost all of the stamps were destroyed that is why it is so hard to find it. He has also added that their client who bought that stamp thrilled to own that unique and master piece of stamp.
