I don't collect Canadian stamps or covers, but I got these king Edward stamped envelopes in an odd lot. I don't know the scott number for it or if there are varieties. I think I have 2 varieties. One embossed and the other not. I checked with thin foil and no embossing. Back view taken as well.

The subject is George V.

The embossed example on the left in your pic is Unitrade U35 (#8 envelope) or U35a (#10 envelope), value unused $12 and $7.50 respectively. The unembossed example on the right is U24, value unused $7.

Edit to Add: The values are for intact entires.

Thanks Rodcam. So they made un unembossed varieties. I never seen that in US stamped envelopes. Is there an online source I can go to to get other values? I have few other different envelopes. They all are entires. These are U35a.

BNAPS is probably your best bet.

I see there is another type to consider to determine which stamp I have. Block or serif font on the numeral 2. looks like ty II block font.

I now see from doing some research that this green stamped envelope might be an essay? At least thats what AI is saying but it took many prompts to get there!
