2¢ Carmine 104LR50
"the retouched line slanted away from the frame into the bottom margin… others (include) 104LR50, in which the length of the line is shorter"

Reiche #51 Q Reiche states "sloping line below CEN of Cents"
Leopold Beaudet determined the position using the plate proofs at Library and Archives Canada.
Leo's Notes
- Retouch to top frame at left stops in left outer oval above right leg of third A. 7.6 mm from left frame. Cavity at right end of the retouch.
- Engraver’s slip in bottom frame. Begins below E in CENTS, strong under most of the N, and weak under the T, ends under the S.
