While working upon my Bahamas stamps I stumbled across the below item...



This King George VI stamp is Design A12, perf. 14, and has watermark 3.

I am unable to locate the Scott # for this stamp in order to properly place it within my collection.

Can anyone help me with acquiring this information?

Your kind attention & assistance with the above request will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Stampalotapus

I assume it's from this group: http://www.freestampcatalogue.com/s...initives-17v

Color might be a bit off, though.

Yes, however I cannot seem to locate a listing in Scott for the 3 1/2p stamp as shown the my initial post. That specific denomination seems to have been skipped.

The Link you (KGB) provided does show that specific stamp - I am stymied and wish to get the Scott # on this item so that I can properly place it within my album.

Perchance is this particular item not acknowledged by Scott?

Once again, I thank you KGB.

Regards,

three half pence = 1 1/2 pence = Scott 102

Stampalo..... go to www.stampworld.com and check the Bahamas, 1938 (year). The stamp does not say three and a half pence, it says three half pence and is listed between the 1 and the 2 pence. I have no Scott number.

Dagnabbit, what a DUNDERHEAD I am.

Mr. Becker I thank you for directing me to the correct Scott #, and the lesson in the finer points of fractions.

Yes, I am ashamed of not coming to that solution myself.

I thank you as well Petert4522.
