  • Country: Sierra Leone.

  • Issue:  King George V Definitive Issue.

  • Value:   6d  (Six Pence).

  • Color:  officially  Dull Purple .

    • Note on Color:  In your photo, this stamp looks  Blue/Grey . However, there was no 6d  Blue  stamp issued in this set (the Blue stamp was the 3d). The 6d was printed in  Dull Purple  or  Purple .

    • "Dull Purple" ink from this era is notorious for looking grey or slate-blue in photographs or under certain artificial lights. It is also possible the stamp has become a "changeling" (faded) over 100 years, losing its reddish hue.

  • Subject:  King George V and Oil Palm.

  • Issue Date:  Between  1912 and 1927 .
