Default A (probably) real Mauritius #2 on eBay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=5544127245
The full story is explained in the item description. The short version:
It appears (to me and to others who have seen it) to be a genuine stamp
in particularly bad condition (“100 years in a damp basement” bad).
Since there are only 12 known examples, and it catalogues $500,000 in
good condition, this is probably the only affordable one you’ll ever
see (other than the fairly common fakes).
It started at $1 and is bid up to about $200 right now.
