2¢ Carmine 6LR92

A very large Guide Dot in the left inner oval. The mark in the bottom margin, below the E of Cents, is constant and will help ID this position.

Research notes:

While not discussed in his book, Marler's collection had several of these varieties with plate positions indicated. 

Leo's Notes

  • Touches the left border of the left inner oval with a faint vertical guideline going through it.
  • LR area is weak. Smudge in the bottom margin below the E in CENTS.
  • Similar to 5LR92 and 6UR92
  • The smudge identifies this stamp.

We use Statser to measure basic website usage without cookies. The system processes page views, clicks, form submissions without form contents, referrers, browser/device information, error pages, approximate visit duration, and pseudonymous visitor keys. Full IP addresses are not stored permanently by Statser; they are processed briefly on the server to create a pseudonymous visitor key, apply technical exclusions, and optionally resolve approximate GeoIP information. If GeoIP is enabled, the IP address is checked locally against a MaxMind GeoLite2 database to determine the approximate country or city. The visitor IP address is not sent to MaxMind. MaxMind is contacted only to download and update the GeoLite2 database. Detailed data is deleted after the configured detail retention period. For long-term trends, Statser also stores aggregated daily values without individual visitor profiles.
