Yup, this is a U2 envelope cut square. There are no imperf CZ stamps, unless it is some sort of proof. The 2cent envelope (actually a Republic of Panama design with the "Canal Zone" added to the die, not overprinted later, like the stamps were) was issued in 1916, in 10 printings, total 1.5 million, all issued. The first printings were carmine and black, with subsequent ones red and black. An entire used envelope runs around $20 or so.
