Hello to all again,

I have seen some of inverted Toronto pre cancelled Admiral 1c greens, but this one's upper part of Toronto missing and instead of period after ONT it appears to be a clear circle.

I would like to know if anyone else has similar stamp or could this be the only one with triple errors on a single stamp?

Impatient to see your comments

cheers
randeni

Looks like a rarity to me. At worst it's definitely a keeper.

You may or may not have the only one with all 3 anomalies, but it doesn't really matter. The additional unfilled period is a relatively minor overprint freak. The retail value of your stamp is still only a few dollars at most (i.e., minor premium). Rare does not necessarily mean valuable.

Nice stamp to own and a good conversation piece.

I am inclined to think that it is just bad inking. Still, a variety worth keeping though.

BUMP.

While searching for something completely different, I saw the OP's request to see if someone had found something similar. Just by chance, I posted almost the same question a year later at this link

Different stamp, upright cancel, but the same unfilled dot after ONT. I guess it was pretty common.

I do collect precancel Canadian stamps...Here is my an example of a semi-rare precancel.

Here is a variety that appears in the TSCPC Catalouge as Scott 36 and Scott 43. This stamp below has the Style R -B2 with 2 breaks, one in the top bar and one in the middle wavy bar. This Scott 35 has the same as a Scott 36 and Scott 43.

It is only the 3rd known variety of this precancel.
