    This one's pretty fussy - it complained about my first name, Liz, being too short, so I had to go with Elizabeth. Never had that happen before!!

    I doubt that you have a pennyblack, if you do then i suggest you deposit it into a bank vault and insure it immediately.

    Alot of people have Penny Blacks.

    Some even on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GB-1840-PENNY-BLACK-DH-Used-Stamp_W0QQitemZ280185770708QQihZ018QQcategoryZ3511QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem , it's the ones with no post mark on them that are the expensive ones, others fetch good sale prices but not as much as "un-touched" ones.
