Is this an example of an horizontal pair imperforate between? If not what does "imperforate between" mean? Thanks for your help.

Imperf between means a pair of perforated stamps without the perforations between stamps. Your pair is imperforate (no perforations at all)

Hi fylbrig413....stallzer is correct.
Your stamps are Horizontal imperforated between the stamps.
Here is another Imperf Horz. pair like yours
You have a bad crease on the left stamp



Also here is a couple of Imperf. Vertical pairs of stamps.



Your stamps..
Scott 163iii - $400.00
or
Scott 172a - $800.00
If both are mint...
But remember the crease will drop the price dramatically..

Wert, with all due respect, your first example is an imperforate pair. That is not the same as 'imperforate between' as in Stallzer's post.

Imperforate pair: imperforate all around and in between the two stamps like the OP example.

Imperforate between: The external sides of a pair of stamps are perforated correctly, but perforations which should exist between the pair are missing.

Horizontally imperforate: A stamp sheet which doesn't have any horizontal perforations, but does display its vertical ones.

Vertically imperforate: A stamp sheet which has no vertical perforations, but does have its horizontal ones as normal.

Nah! C'mon Robert, we all make boners, ride the bump and tally forth,
Laugh at yourself.
The man whom never made a mistake, never got anywhere.

Some of the greatest inventions on earth, were results of mistakes.

Yea, Robert! It proves your human too. And yes we all misspeak, misquote and make mistakes. To err is human! And computers are ----- well you know! Laugh, live and learn. That after all is what we continually do in life.

If it weren't for mistakes, the inverted Jenny, man on the mast, or any number of fun errors wouldn't exist.

Thanks to both of you. Much appreciated. One last inquiry based on Wert's remarks: How do you determine the difference between NF163 and NF172? I know the difference between NF145 and NF163 is the location of BAULD and NORMAN on the stamps. Thanks again.

I for one, have no idea what you mean by this.
Pro tip: don't abbreviate country/issuer names, and specify which catalog you're referencing.

Newfoundland Scott 163 has no watermark
Newfoundland Scott 172 has watermark 224, coat of arms. I don't know if it covers entire sheet and every stamp therein
