The Mi uncatalogued items amount to 480+ singles & 53 blks, with only a few of these priced where there is a perf or imperf equivalent, o/w all unlisted not counted & varieties only cat as normals. (note that most of those items unlisted in Mi are in fact listed in SG or Scott)
Total Mi cat almost �137,000, plus all the varieties & unlisted could easily be another �50,000 to �100,000+, so total must easily be = A$250,000!
