Good day to everyone,

I've never laid eyes on these type of stamps until 2 weeks ago. I am still fairly new to collecting and green when it comes to identifying and determining condition. The grills are what's throwing me. I just can't see them clearly enough to determine the type of grill. I'm grateful for any help and or advice when it comes to grills and also who should I send stamps to for certification? Thank you all. Jonathan

Hi Flipacoin. Your stamps look nice, but you really need a much better picture, preferably a scan in order to tell anything.

welcome Flip! The key to grills is the reverse side of the stamp (you need to post better - blowup - pix of the reverse side so people can see the grills. What people look for is the grill points. So you need good pictures of the reverse so the points show up. Then you will probably get more comprehensive answers. Post the pictures in pairs... frontside-backside so the viewers can connect the back side view with the stamp. Good luck!

flipacoin, the upper lone stamp, will not have a grill. That issue and the imperforate version of it, do not have grills.

Much better pictures are needed, but I don't see a grill on any of these.
