This image is 2228 with an 1898A inset with a red border. Note that 1898A has the joint line typical of the Cottrell press and that the stagecoach is taller for 1898a. A good way to quickly tell the difference is to take an inexpensive regular stamp of either (write which one it is on the back), cut it in half vertically, and use it to measure the stamp(s) you're trying to identify.
