Danish West Indies Perforation Variety?

Greetings from Canada,
The single stamp is a DWI perf 12.5 x 12.5. I assume it is the 1874- 79 or 1896-1901 issue. As to colour, I am not competent to judge. I show the stamp on its own and with two perf 14 x 13.5 normals. The 12.5 variety has thicker paper than the two normals. It is frame inverted. I checked (20130207) Not allowed by the Staff and found no variety listed there. Is there a Scoot specialized or AFA nunber for ths variety"
Most grateful for your help

I believe the top stamp is Scott 17.

Thank you, KGB for drawing my attention to this oddity. Thr catalogue says perf 13: Jay lists them as 12.5. and mine is a definite 12.5. I shall mark it as S 17.

I am grateful

Hi Michael

the stamp in question is print 9, perf 12 3/4 and not 12.5 or 13...

and now for the geeky stuff.

it's a frametype 5A inverted as you said... the picture is too poor to position it in the sheet... 23 positions have frametype 5A

the 2 other stamps are:

print 5 position 100 with frametype 4G and ovalflaw 22
print 7 position 47 with frametype 4E no ovalflaw

Sorsh - that's really geeky !

Very geeky-and I am very grateful

you're very welcome, post more if you have them but in better quality and i'll see if I can position them... this goes for the danish bicolored as well, except the 4 and 8øre perf 12 3/4.
