I found these two South Africa in a recent Kilo lot. Can someone please confirm that the 92 is in fact a pair of 92D?
Also the 409 is missing the red coloring and I did not see anything listed with that error but I am working from a 2014 catalog.
Thanks for looking and commenting.
Paul

Sorry, but the quality of the image of the 1 1/2d pair is not good enough. The multiples are separated by roulette, and if there is any trace of roulette cuts between including just dents, it is not an imperf pair.

What is noted as Scott# 409 is Scott# 431, the coil stamp. That is 2 colors only with a different green vs. the sheet stamp. This coil issue does not have straight edges, with bad/trimmed perfs being the norm.

Well stick a pin in my balloon.
I looked at the pair under a mag glass and can see ever so slight marks between the two stamps. Not visible to the naked eye.
I also see the designation for 12.5 perfs on a coil stamp but did not expect a stamp with perfs on three sides to be a coil. Something new learned today.
Thanks for the feedback.
