This is the bottom of the 2012 20c farming issue sheet. Checkout the 1st horizontal row of stamps to the 2nd row!  The 10c issue as another example of what should be normal issue?

Looks like to take this possible Variety any further and need to buy some more 20c Farming Australia sheets.
The make up stamps are getting low in our mailing book. Might be able to buy a number of the bottom 2 rows of sheets......

Not sure what variety you are exactly pointing out there? The seeming plate shift at the end or the lack of a Koala on the Pineapple?Could you use an editing program to add in an arrow so as to point it out? Thanks. Found this on ebay searching for something similar perhaps: Perf shift or the seller in Australia called it a plate error: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Farming-Aust...em3a92d01870 |

Thanks Puzzler!
Wow! $8.50 for a 20c stamp from 2012!
What is the bet that all these 20c stamp sheets are the same....
Oh well! I will find out tomorrow. I go passed 4 large PO's and have a pick up from one of them and my fruit & vegie shop is next door to another! |

I see three varieties in each block of 6. Variety #1: Design stops at perforations at right and bottom. Variety #2: Design continues beyond perforations at right; design stops at perforations at bottom. Variety #3: Design continues beyond perforations at right and bottom.
There is a fourth variety with the Dairy stamp. Variety #4: Design stops at perforations at right; design continues past perforations at bottom.
Regards, Robert |

Thank you Puzzler!  Hi Trainwreck I like your description! It is a shame that the person from Sydney Australia(very near where I grew up) that Puzzler linked for us has taken the margins off and also separated the the 2 bottom rows and also turned them into singles..... As the stamps loose the "flavour of your description!" |

It is a 1st print plate flaw that was corrected on the 2nd print.
The (Australia Post) Post Office sent a request that the sheets are to be recalled from stock.
So now we know! |

Hi to all
There is an excellent article in the December 2012/January 2013, Volume six, part six Australian Stamp Professonal. The article has colour photos of the varieties, which include, Pineapples, and the $1.00 Grapes. Regards Horamakhet |

Hi Horamakhet.
Could you describe the error in the $1.00 Grapes.
Sound like I need to get the publication. I was given some to read and was very impressed. |

http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums...dc5f0590.jpg Hi KGV I have copied the article from the magazine for all, I am sure that will not mind sharing the information. For some reason the other half of the article would not load, but if you click on the photobucket tag at the top, it will open the other half of the article. Regards Horamakhet |

I also like the shade variation becomes brighter as the stamps move from left to right on the pane. |
