Very nice stamps!

Your Canal Zone stamp is #89. On #78, the tops of the "A" are very noticeably flat. I'll see if I can pilfer a comparison pic for you.

Indeed, it is type B overprint. Another tell-tale sign is that the ZO in zone in the type A khj shows above are extremely close together or even touching.

Oh, and congratulations! That is one of my favorite US/CZ stamps.
