A Question About Small Queen's Heads... 5c And 10c

I will be thankful if anyone could help me to determine the colours (or possibly SC or SG numbers) on the 2 bottom right stamps.

Hope that scan is good enough...

Hi filipo,

From the colour on the scans I would classify them as:

Scott 38 - 5 cent slate green (Unitrade 2009 cat price = C$12.50 - fine)
Scott 40 - 10 cent dull rose lilac (Unitrade 900 cat price = C$45.00 - fine).

I do not know the SG assigned numbers.

Hi Stamporator, thank you very much for the info.

TOP ROW
1 cent - if perforation 12.0 SC 35 yellow (Ottawa printing) or 35i yellow (Montreal printing)
if perforation 11.5 x 12.0 SC35iii lemon yellow or 35vii yellow

2 cent - if perforation 12.0 SC 36 green (Montreal printing) or 36i yellow (Ottawa printing)

3 cent - if perforation 12.0 SC 37b [two names] copper red or Indian red or 37d if perforation 12.5

6 Cent - SC 27a if yellow brown

BOTTOM ROW
6 cent - SC 39 if perforation 12.0 or SC 39b if perforation 11.5 x 12.0

5 cent - Both stamps
SC 38 if perforation 12.0 or SC 38a if perforation 11.5 x 12.0
Colours do not appear to have any greening tinge so do match the original slate green or
dark olive green printed colours due to oxidization?

10 Cent - SC 40 perforation 12.0 or SC 40c if perforation 11.5 x 12.0
