This looks like a #12 but it is on a very thick paper.

Any help would be so great!

Nano, you should use tongs to handle stamps with, not fingers. And they would look great if using a black background

You are right Peter. I should never touch stamps with my fingers, as they have oil and dirt which could damage the stamp.

Thank you rogdcam! I appreciate it a lot! I will look up proofs in the Scott catalog.

I was doing some research. So this could be a, "12P1, or a 12P2a". Does that sound correct?

Thank you.
