2¢ Carmine 8LR62

Reiche states "No. 105 line from left crown through top letters ending in front of right crown, original die"

Research notes:

Note that this line is much higher than in Matte 809 or Matte 810.There are currently five very similar CPVs reported on the 2¢ Carmine. This is the outlier where the line is much higher on the stamp. An additional, interesting feature is the constant area of missing colour between the 'S' of Cents and the right numeral box. This would seem to be similar to the flaw found on 2UR97 - the "white dot above 'C' of Cents."

Leo's Notes

  • Horizontal line through the middle of the left crown, the D in CANADA, the top of the S in POSTAGE, and the right inner oval.

  • Small marks in TA in POSTAGE and in the right outer oval above the T.

Guide dot in the centre of the left inner oval.

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.
