Coinwatcher.....I must admit..you never give up....now why are you SO SURE this stamp is a re-entry....? Have you EVER gone to Ralphs site that myself and other people have told you to visit...???? |

I am not very familiar with Canadian stamps other than I think the older ones are just downright beautiful! Having said that I would like to put the plate scratch that I see in the ".....A POS." in an EFO collection! Other than that I see nothing special that does not show in almost every older stamp.

Yes Wert I have compared this stamp to the Scott 97's that Ralph has on his site. Notice how the line goe's right through the bottom of the "Q" of Quebec. |

All these re-entries you think that you have come across...have you ever sent Ralph any of them to have him tell you what he sees...??? Can you post a closeup of theword Centenaire...? |

What I see is a possible cracked plate. Uncertain about a misplaced entry or re-entry. If you can, post more closeup shots of other parts of the stamp. |

I confess a wondering shake of the head for the whole fascination with re-entries. Something that really can't be seen with the naked on - and very hard to prove - just don't get it. But hey. To each his / her own. |

Perhaps someone can help me with this one. It seems to be a little different than the one above!  I couldn't resist this... but I want never to undermine the high quality of comments in this forum. Just a tease. (I'll try to behave!) (made with Corel Paintshop Photo Pro X3) |

I have taken some better pics now and agree no re-entry, but the marks in A-POS are a great feature on this stamp. Is this a plate scratch or cracked plate?  |

This is either a 'cracked' plate or minute traces of 'hairlines'.
