If you are asking if these are two different stamps, then YES, they are. The original set was issued in 1899 and included the purple and orange 10 centavos stamp (SG 270). Most of the set was re-issued in 1903, with a change in the colours of the issues, resulting in the 10 centavos stamp appearing in blue and orange (SG 280).

I don't know where you look , but the purple and orange is 1898 or 1899 wand the blue and orange 1903. , both with minimal value

For those interested Scott 298 violet & orange year 1899 of issue and Scott 308 blue & orange year 1903 of issue.

Have Agreat day cant understand Howe coldent fond IT understand me right when I say that computers and information is bit confusing! Bye

You need a catalogue, as you see in this Scott classic it's very clear, illustration a29 and the 2 listings 1898 and 1903 are one over the other
