#295

That was a tough choice. I like both issues, the clincher would be the vignette and overall eye appeal.

Ha, funny, today I received an envelope from the US (some stamps I'd purchased from Stampwants), and on the cover was that #733. Not being a collector of US stamps (yet) I'd never seen it before, so I took a good look at it. Then I open up this thread and there it is!

Not enough of a coincedence to change my vote though , #295 is a beautiful stamp.
