Hello, today I bought these 2 stamps. In my Stampmanage program I found them as
Scott 482A and Scott 134.
I think that's too good to be true, it's wishfull dreaming I think. I hope that someone can and is willing to help me with this, I'm a collector from the Netherlands.
Thank you all for your replys. I bought the stamps in a box with all USA stamps for a few Euros. Can anyone tel me what the supposed 482A stamp really is? With kind regards, Aart
It looks like a Scott #409 with Schermack Type III private perforations for use in their vending/affixing machines. Check for a single-line watermark on the back.
It is certainly a type 1 given the weak rope and button. However, I don't understand why we are calling it a 409 (SL watermark). Couldn't it also be a 482 (no watermark)?
Jack, it could be a #482. But to me, the color and print characteristics more closely resemble a #409. If you haven't, read through the post Clark indicated yet. There is some information there from both he and I regarding some characteristics of a 409 vs. a 482
