2¢ Carmine 96LR4

An engraver's slip variety in the bottom margin starting at the bottom frame below 'C' of Cents and ending under the 'T'.

Research notes:

Leopold Beaudet determined the position using the plate proofs at Library and Archives Canada.

Leo's Notes

  • Engraver’s slip in bottom margin slopes down to the right. Begins below the middle of the C in CENTS and ends below the T.
  • Similar slip on 96LR71, but a bit shorter.
  • This stamp is SET whereas 96LR71 is SEL.
