Secondly, the miniature sheet itself:
Here's the reverse of the pack (stock sheet) with all the details
:
Finally, another image of the 1993 high value definitive in a mint block of four:
These where additionally 'embossed' with the Braille characters for 'TEN' and printed on granite paper incorporating small coloured threads.
Hope you like them Ernie!

That, my friend, is an amazing stamp! I do not think I have seen a better copy.
