I have a lovely 11A on cover. It's a nice brownish carmine that I always seem to favor.
It also has a decent shifted transfer. Again, I thought this would be an easy stamp to plate and again I'm failing.

I thought it might be position 24L2L. But 24L2L is a relief 'B' stamp. I believe my stamp is a relief 'A' stamp so it cannot be this position...

Any help, as always, is appreciated.

The close up images are taken with my camera so do not match the true color of the stamp.

Winston, thank you.
It's bitter sweet missing on the color (thinking it's too red for OB) and not plating it correctly, but learning I have a decent plate 0 shifted transfer stamp on a cover...

Lesson: if it's not what you think it should be, have a look at what you think it's not.

I am SOOOO glad sinclair2010 found this because it was driving me crazy. First observation looked like brownish carmine to me as well and I looked through the 2L / 3 plates over and over and over. 14R0 is MUCH better than 2L or 3!!! Nice job sinclair2010 on finding that one and nice stamp stampcrow.

FYI - that position doesn't have a photo associated with it on the Stamp Smarter plating initiative. May want to get it added.
