It must have gotten tiresome to fill in the date one every item they cancelled,... |

From 2003? wiki There are four things each stamp design must include: the stamp's denomination, the words New Zealand, a fern, one of the country's unofficial symbols, and a description of what the stamp depicts. Finally, the Post uses printers from around the world to print the stamps–it does not print them itself. Note the last New Zealand stamp (Scot piper) No date of issue, No description A fairly non informative issue. Reiner Roller Slogan FastPost Slogan Plate. No requirement of NZ Post to indicate place of cancellation. Just "New Zealand Post"   |

Unknown Postmark. But fascinating, thought it may be a "Boite Mobile" Pmk, but never seen one with a value before 62 3/10ths cents? Possibly Napier CDS. Welcome any ideas... Sc#62 1882 2d Queen Victoria Violet. Perf 12.  Ross Dependency 1972 Steiner Page 3.  |

Rod, are you sure that the fractional value marking does not indicate revenue usage? |

Quote: Rod, are you sure that the fractional value marking does not indicate revenue usage? Bob, not sure at all, could be anything, I am open to all suggestions. I'll look around the NZ blogs, or send it to the NZ Philatelic Soc for ID. Not seen anything like it anywhere. |

Note: Most stamps will be used, and hinged. This entire collection created by "gifted" or "swapped" stamps. I do not recall ever buying a NZ stamp. Some examples will be very poor. 1946 Steiner Page 25.  |

Bob, a complete fluke... Googled something like "philately diamond marking 2/10c" and up some popped. Google was my friend.

Yes. I've learned to never underestimate the power of the Google. It can take you way beyond your hoped-for destination. |
