i have two of these 15 cent stamps and under the uv one is dull an the other lights up like a christmas tree. I looked in the unitrade 2015 on page 25 under paper fluorescence and the different types are listed. I just dont know if the stamp is F HF or HB and how would I be able to tell the difference in the future

Look in the introduction in the front of Unitrade. That gives some suggestions as to how this can be done. In my 2016 version it is on page 25.

hi AQ ty for your reply I did look at the introduction as I mention and there is nothing there telling me how to tell the difference. it just lists the types of flourenscence papers
i understand the LF F HF but it does not say what the HB would look like. I would think it would be very bright but so would HF. so back to my question how can I tell which it is.

There should be list on that page as to what stamps are known to have a specific fluorescence. Dull 441, Low 558, Medium 658-659, High 625, and Hibrite 468B. Working of the old 2008 Unitrade. Hope this helps.
