I was filtering through covers obtained at auction and came across one tagged "Grosvenor." Scanned for identification to APS and they identified as 498, perf 11 bottom; however, in my novice eyes, it seems to be perf 10 when compared with Coil 599. Would appreciate any insight.

Al, looks like you're right. So then either 581 or 543? The cancellation is Sept. 26, 1923. Thanks so much.

581 must be a typo.

Is the stamp from a rotary press?

I believe it is rotary as it is slightly elongated in height. Thanks for the insight!

A 543's design should measure 19 by 22.5 mm.
