Details
Black bowed overprint "LABUAN" and black horizontal overprint "4 cents".
Presumably due to irregular pins rather than different perforators, stamps issued from 1894 to 1905 have a number of small variations, as well for a single perforation as for a compound of perforations.
The varieties of this item lie between perforation 14½ and perforation 15.
