I have 3 1912-1915 Washington's that I need to know which type they are,I,II,or III and also then the numbers of each I guess as well as the numbers there say 405 or 424..
Here are the 3 stamps I have








Heres what the book illustrates as type I,II,and III and I really cant see what they mean on my stamps to tell differences








Thanks so much for anyones help on this matter,once I see what the heck you guys look for on this I hopefully will understand it and get it better to find these out for myself and not have to bother you guys

The Types I, II and III are for the 2 cent value. The stamps posted appear to be perf 11. The top 2 are flat plate engraved and would be Scott 498. The bottom is offset printing which would be Scott 525.

EDIT typo
