I haven't sent it off to Ralph yet, but I think this one is a winner. It is certainly one of the most difficult to see ... even under 50X magnification.



The RCMP is doubled, but not the vertical frameline to the left as described on re-entries.com. Instead, there is a slight doubling on the frameline to the right.



But what I thought was more telling was the doubling of much of the field of grass, and part of the horse and bridle outline.



I'll have to keep looking, but enjoy!

Re-entries are a Total Mystery to me. Please have a look at this listing I have on ebay and tell me whether you see a re-entry or not: (351337519465)

CanadaStamp...I looked at your stamp on ebay and I don't see what you think you are seeing...Please clarify.

Partime...Are you sure you are not seeing an over inked stamp, ink pulls..?

BUT..BUT..Ralph will let you know for sure.

Hi Wert. What I am seeing is a small line on the right of the RCMP box, plus multiple doubling located all throughout the grassy area. I'll send to Ralph later (he is quite busy and still looking at some others that I sent him a few weeks ago.)

Queen Vicky 77 (in Unitrade) shows a blow-up of the re-entry (which does not tell me much) - but I'm assuming it's the heavier lines to left and bottom of 3 - yes?

No, not quite. It is actually the number 3 and a shadowy look, almost like a kiss-print, or a doubling. You would also see some doubling in the Canada letters. In addition, maybe an extra horizontal line below everything. I don't see any from the picture, so I doubt it is a Re-Entry.

I'll have to look through mine again carefully, though. That is a difficult one to see without magnification.

Partime, from what is visible in the scan, yours is likely a re-entry.
This stamp has a several examples of a similar re-entry in this location. Yours (as all are) is very minor in nature.

I have some examples myself. If I find time, I will scan them for comparison.

For everyone interested in Re-entries, there is a BNAPs group that has recently re-started that deals with plate varieties and re-entries.

You must be a member of BNAPS to join this study group, but it is worthwhile for anyone that is interested in this field.
