I've started going through the smaller of the two hoards I bought at Chicagopex, examining for cancels, plate varieties, printing anomalies, etc.

These 3 examples of R5c proved interesting. If you click on each image, it will increase to 1600 dpi.

At first glance, this one looks like an inking anomaly or a kiss impression, but the doubling is prominent in some places but nonexistent in others.




The next two are very similar, both double transfers not listed in Scott.

The first one shows doubling in the N of INTER, the E of REV, and the letters of CENTS.

The second shows doubling in the letters of CENTS and CHECK.

NTER.REV shows doubling on the top stamp as well as in CHECK, all to the right. Also to a lesser extent in CENTS. The other two stamps show almost the same double transfer, may be from neighboring positions on the sheet, The CENTS in both look alike.

The doubling in all three stamps is strong enough to see without a closeup. Difficult to understand why these are un reported. Nice find, what else is in that small hoard?
