Hi Hal,

I always use this internet link to identify US stamps. This is an excellent website. But identify Lincoln 6c is difficult.

Thank you!

Scroll down look at the right side bar and click where it says 6¢ Bank Note Identifier

Hi Hal,

I guess #208 and #186 or #148... but i'm not sure :-)

Thank you!

A good magnifier helps. Good luck.

The co;or and overall shading on the left stamp almost certainly makes it a 208. The right stamp appears to be a 186. It could be a 159 which was printed on hard white paper. The secret mark appears to be evident inside the "O" cancel. I doubt it is a 148 since that was printed in a carmine. The right stamp looks to be a dull pinkish shade as are both 159 and 186. Better scans would be helpful.

Hi,

Maybe this right stamp zoom can help.



Thank you Quigngt and Hal!
