Valuation / Price Guidance:
According to a listing for a “1952 Wilding 2½d Carmine Red SG519 Block of 6 Variety Dr Blade Flaw MNH” the asking price is US $40.93 (~£32–£35)
Catalogue value for a single SG 519 mint used is around £7.99 in used condition
Because blocks and in mint condition command premiums, your block of 6 in MNH might justify a multiple of single value (perhaps 3–5× or more, depending on demand and condition).
A block in excellent condition might realistically list for £30 to £80+ or higher, depending on niche collector demand.

Tips / Notes:
Be very clear and accurate about condition—inspect gum, perforations, centering.
Provide good close-up photos (front, back, selvage, gum).
Mention “Block of 6” and “Mint Never Hinged” prominently in title/description.
Use relevant eBay stamp listing keywords (e.g. “Wilding”, “SG519”, “British QEII”, “2½d”, “Block”, “MNH”).
You might also list in “Stamps & Postal History” → “GB & British Empire” → “Queen Elizabeth II” for better visibility.
