Hi, I'm trying to differentiate between the varities of the 1982-1987 booklet stamps and could use some help! These would be #'s 938-948.

I'm looking for tips or an online source to help me identify paper types and whether a stamp is coated or uncoated. What's in my Unitrade Catalog for info isn't sufficient enough it seems.

Thanks! TK

Unitrade does mention that the gum colour(mint stamps) of the Harrison paper is blue-green whereas for the Roland paper it is white.

But I guess it wouldnt be as obvious on soaked used stamps.
