2¢ Carmine 6LR85

"Doubling In C, the left side of A, the top and bottom of G, and E"

Research notes:

The constant dots at the right of the top margin serve to identify this position.

Leo's Notes

  • Doubling in the left side of CA in CANADA.
  • Doubling in the top and bottom of the G and in the E in POSTAGE.

Five scattered dots in the top margin above OS in POSTAGE. The top two dots are in the middle of the margin, and may be perfed out or appear on the stamp above.

7UL61 has a similar variety, but the dots are in a different position.

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.
