1873: 1 s. green, plate 12, in combination with irregular block of three Jubilee 1887 1½ d. dull purple & pale green, used on registered cover, from Cardiff to Sweden, dated 3 September 1891, tied by Cardiff cds in black, with partial London registered oval in red alongside. To the reverse an arrival in blue (5 September). The 1 s. is 'pocket stamp quality'. Scarce. Mixed frankings involving the Jubilee 1½ d. purple & green are scarce with fewer than 15 covers recorded. Late usage of the 1 s. green and the 2 d. overpayment implies a philatelically inspired cover sent from stamp dealer 'HG Hansen' of Cardiff. According to the Karl Louis card index this is the latest usage of the 1873 1 s. green.
