2c. on 2ca. green, pane 4 [1], the surcharge showing tso shifted to the right of pane II [1], unused and regummed. The stamp has been repaired and shows some thickening of the paper on the left side, which includes some surface restoration. The unused stamp is one of the major rarities of Chinese philately, this being only the third recorded example. All China Philatelic Federation Certificate (2005). S.G. 71; Chan 67. Photo
Estimate HK$ 1,000,000-1,500,000

This stamp is from the sheet where the centring of both stamp and surcharge is low and right and is very similar to the used example sold in the Eric Beckerman collection in 1998.

Our study of centring of these stamps suggest that four sheets were surcharged, indicating a macimum of 160 stamps only. Most of the used stamps are cancelled by Shanghai Dollar chops, readable dates being between 28th and 31st July 1897 - a very short period of use.

The first unused example was discovered in 1925 by the collector, Yuan Li-Po. This stamp was shown to many famous Chinese and western collectors at the time. M.D. Chow confirmed the stamp to be genuine and offered Mr. Yuan an exchange with two of the four great rarities of the Republic period. This, and subsequent offers, was refused. The collection was sold in 1931 and this famous stamp was purchased by his friend, Tan Rong-Pu, who kept the stamp for 5 or 6 years, until his death. His stamp collection was taken by his adopted son and all trace of this stamp lost.

After his initial appraisal, M.D. Chow wrote a long article claiming that, from his memory of the stamp, it was of a dark colour and he was no longer so sure of his first appraisal. Unfortunately he did not have the opportuity to re-examine the stamp.

The two examples previously offered for sale by auction have appeared in the following collections:
1. Lt. Cmd. G.T. Baines, Warren Kauder, Meiso Mizuhara
2. Sir Percival David, James Huangco, Quintin Tan
Both of these stamps are in a paler shade.

There has long been talk of a third unused 'Emerald Lady' (or 'Jade Princess')

Conjecture has been that Mr. Yuan's original stamp was one of the above two, but this does not take into account the deeper shade that M.D. Chow described

原票和陈国珍那枚接近，可以是同一格。（但是陈那枚是毛齿票）
但是加盖位置和陈国珍那枚不一样，此枚偏右下。

香港各拍卖现在假货一大把，没亲身查看很难有定论。此票的加盖非常规整，有的看，，，，，，

這票"銀"字與加蓋pane#4pos#1近似,但還需要比對原票的pane#4,8,12,另外說明裡寫的"Our study of centring of these stamps suggest that four sheets were surcharged, indicating a macimum of 160 stamps only."
就顯的不夠專業,數量好像少算了一半,再加上我有的另一枚舊票與這些都不同,那翡翠姐的數量恐怕還要再增加,到底應該是160枚或是480枚?

这是第四枚自称是菲翠姐新票，来历不明，有待了解。现四枚新票中，第一、二枚是日本水原明窗和菲律宾现任菲集邮联主席陈国珍之物，这两件都是毛齿，已被公认为真品，第三件是香港人的，公开亮相后，台湾邮界争论很大，两派互不让步、不欢而散。第三枚和这第四枚同为光齿。加盖位置与前两枚很大不同。字体笔划较细。真否假否，我不懂，将关注邮界以后专家的看法

楼主是用彩色拍目扫描后贴上的，就是这样效果。若在Spink的网贴上取图，效果可能不同。
