That's interesting, almost makes me want to start hunting the issue to see what I can find. I get lost in projects so I won't, too many now.
You are going to make me check auctions and see if I can find images showing the two types.
Good luck. |

Common. I couldn't locate it, but we discussed the extra line in the upper left that looks like a re-entry, but is also common for this issue. Keep looking.  |

They are basically two different stamps - would it not be normal to be a bit different? If the stamps came from the same sheet yes, then I would worry!

The valid comparison is comparing 1's against 1's, and 10's against 10's. |

I checked out other denominations an some look like the 10 cent and other look like t 1 cent, interesting. It looks like two designs almost in the same series. |

Wert, have you looked at the specs for these two stamps? It seems to me that maybe different denominations in this series could have been etched by different engravers?
