For sale is an imperf PLATE PROOF from the Walsall Security Printers archives of one of the values from Niuafoou 1989 Evolution set.

All the stamps from this set were issued perforated. There were NO stamps issued imperf. The only imperf stamps like the one for sale are plate proofs. Walsall Security Printers printed one sheet first, and this sheet was taken for checking and approval by the officials. After it passed the necessary checks, this imperf proof sheet was placed in the printers archives and was left imperf. All other sheets issued were perforated. There are usually only 20 plate proofs for each stamp in existence, a very small number indeed when compared to the many "proofs" of many other countries especially "printed" for collectors. The Tongan plate proofs are genuine proofs done by the printers for checking purposes then kept until recently in the printers archives.
