One sheet of each valúè of the final design reached the Public in imper-forate condition. The Pfennig and 1 Gulden value were issued in sheets of 100, whereas the 2 1/2 Gulden value was issued in sheets of 50. Therefore, only 50 complete imperforate sets can exist. (6)

Recently, there have been offered imperforate 21/2 Gulden values as coming from the imperforate final sheet and until now they could not be distinguished from the proofs. We are now able to prove them to be Cut from the proof sheetlets and not from the final imperforate sheet. Another bit of new information due to original research on an issue almost 50 years old.
