This 1967 Great Britain christmas stamp (Michel #474)  displays the classical adoration of the shepherds topic painted by an unknown Spanish masters (16-17th century).  As one can see from the image below, the color shift affects only the gold imprint (meaning face value and queens head).

Great Britain 1967 Christmas stamp with gold imprint color shift

I’ve seen images of pretty similar Great Britain gold imprint colour shifts sold for 20-30GBP.  However, these have nearly always been mint / unused copies.  Very likely this used copy is of less market value as most british error collectors seem to prefer mint.

What’s your take on this stamp. Have you seen any similar and at which market price?
