Top of the grill left corner inprint can be clearly seen.
Top right second row shows extra row is well.
These rows can not be seen in normal vew! |

13-14 Horizontal and 18 down,that's how much I got.
I think It's hard to believe but it maybe Z gril or in worse scenarial E Gril.
Counted many times and same result. |

Z grill has horizontal ridges (- - -). Your grill has vertical ridges (I I I) |

RUSS....correct, by having vertical ridges (which you state), eliminates the Z grill...which only has HZ ridges.

GLADIATORS001....there have been no more than 6 examples of the 10c issue, w/Z GRILL.
This item should be a SCOTT #89.

Yes but it does not means that more do not exist!
But how to explain 13-14 horizontal by 18 vertical?
And similarity with example one - fading first rows and colloms? |

I only count 17 points vertically.
You can make the points more easily seen by rubbing a pencil back and forth across a scrap of paper, rubbing your finger across the markings, and then lightly rubbing your finger on the grill area (as was done in the example you posted).
Another method of bringing out the grill so it is easier to count the points is with the use of watermark (lighter) fluid. |

GLADIATOR001....Here goes....IT CAN NOT BE A Z GRILL. they have horizontal ridges....this stamp has vertical ridges. That ELIMINATES the "Z". They still have 6 known. |
