A large dot next to her nose. A listed variety. Rare...one in 50k. The extra spire...for example is one in 15k.  |

That's very interesting, where did you find the "odds"?
I'm not aware of a listed beauty mark variety (at least not in Unitrade) and there's many of this issue with marks somewhere on her face. Is it listed elsewhere and what is the catalogue value, please. |

It`s listed in the `Centennial study group`...newsletters.
You can see these at the BNAPS website. There is no catalogue
value...that`s why I was comparing it to the extra spire.
If you go to the BNAPS website click on the Harrison Library.
Newsletters found in the upper left area. |

This one has a dot above the twin spires at left of library. It`s a listed variety found with general tagging on fluorescent paper.   |

I don't have any pre-printing paper crease stamps, but am surprised that the cancellation doesn't cover the major crease.
Is that because the crease creates a depression so that the cancellation ink doesn't touch the paper? |

The stamp was still creased when it was cancelled.
I soaked it in some water and then stretched it
out. Then I pressed it for a couple of days. |

A series of vertical lines across the stamp. This is a perf 12x12.5 die I. You can see the first line is on the front of the ships cabin and the last one coming out of her hair. It`s a listed variety but I don`t know much more about it.   |

Here`s the black version of 2 dots under CANADA. I posted the orange perf 10 version on page 5. This stamp is die I perf 12x12.5. Same plate used for both colours.   |

Another die II perf 12x12.5 stamp. This one has a wedge shaped mark in the upper left margin. It`s a reported variety.   |

When you say its a "reported" variety, do you mean that it has been recognized by the Centennial Group ? I don't remember any of your latest submissions to be a variety "listed" by Scotts or Unitrade.
I do look forward to your daily midnight submissions as I enjoy seeing all of the possible varieties of any Canadian stamp issue.
Please keep posting new ones, so I can get my morning "stamp fix". |
