Wondering if I should go back and look at the other sheets. Is it common for the gold scuba diver to be on the back of the other one. I know it's a small colour shift but none the less it's a colour shift on a modern. I don't have a up to date unitrade book so if it's in there my bad.   |

This is one of the two sheets I bought. I only have this scan since both were used for their intended purpose. Prepayment of postage.  |

Very interesting. I don't see a colour shift in the actual stamp though. |

Sak: it seem like yours is shifted up a bit on the gold. Canadianphilatelist: On Lithogravings set (nice scan) the bottom right of the one is 5 lines up,might be one more cause it is very light (not lines but they look like that from a distance). On mine it is 3 lines to the bottom corner of the one.  |

Which in turn is very unlikely since in modern printing most, if not all is printed on one pass through the press. |

Based on the relationship of the gold diver to the bottommost diver, sak's is offset more than lithograving's. Mine are the same as lithogravings.
Therefore, sak's $10 is definitely lower than others'. |

There are ten sheets (plus one lot of 9) on ebay right now. All ten show the diver's position like lithograving's. |

Went back to the Post Office to see if there were any more of these hanging around and they only had one other sheet and it was the normal one. Thought they had more than one but turned out there was bunch of Moose stamps under it so had to get one sheet of that. lol |
