Notes:
Lovely die-stamped embossed design. Cover signed by Donald Coggan (Ex Archbishop of Canterbury); Andrew B. Doig (Moderator of the Church of Scotland); Harry Williams (Dean at Trinity College during Prince Charles's stay); and Basil Hume (Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Church). I have never seen all four signatures before on the one first day cover. This could be the only one in existence with these signatures. Comes with letter of authenticity.
