1c 1851 Plate 1-Late Stamps

8R

jaxom100 - I've been struggling lately to plate some Plate 1L stamps that I didn't think would be that difficult because I could see the extent of their recuts pretty clearly. It seems, though, that on a number of occasions, the detailing of the recuts in the Neinken drawings doesn't correspond precisely with either the actual examples you have on StampSmarter or with Deporto's examples. Sometimes the discrepancy is significant enough that I'm left in doubt if I have found a match or not.

I think Deporto sometimes mentions these discrepancies, but I wish they were all documented somewhere in one place. Have you ever made a list like I'm referring to, and if yes, is it something you could publish on this forum or put up on StampSmarter?

I also have found one position in your recut images where I am either missing something or the image must be labeled incorrectly. Look at 41L1L. The position is recut 1x on top and 2x on bottom, but I see no indication of the 2nd recut on the bottom in your example.
