1883 UPU 4d rate USING OBSOLETE STOCK to Paris
with twenty year old 1863 4d bright violet CC P.12½ (SG.70) tied both weak O.4 1 numeral (possibly LRD) plus light Trinidad C/JA 27 83 despatch. Alongside Calais A Paris 12 FEVR 83 plus red crayon 3, London FE 12 83 and Paris b/stamps, some small peripheral tears sealed with hinges.
As the new design QV 4d grey (SG.110) was invoiced from London DE 8 1882 (and would have arrived 14-18 days later) it might be thought that the GPO was keen to use up its obsolete Britannia issues, and this 4d explained in that that the later Britannia 4d greys had been placed on top of the old 4d purples on delivery - the Peter Jaffe theory of new stock being placed on top of old. Currently unique as such.
