'Thanks Tasnaki - does Ref B57 mean plate unknown, Pane B, position 57?'
No, 3 digit numbers like that are just my reference where I have ony 1 copy of a flaw (I have hundreds of them!),
Not enough larger blocks for plates 2 & 3 (WM40) to be able to do much plating yet.

Re Q11 This is 5D-56, there appear to be a couple of states. Below are some scans of the area concerned.     Tasnaki |

Very interesting to see the development of these flaws - I hadn't noticed that break in the frame to the left of P but I can see now on my stamp that it is starting to form. |

Q.12 Breaks in lower frame (Watermark 68) Not sure if this would be constant but I'll post it anyway:  Q.13 Closed E of NEW and A of WALES and no lines on numerals (Watermark 68)  |

I have several copies of the first one, unfortunately none of them are dated. Not plated as yet.  Your second one: The missing lines in the '1's appears on a number of positions, dependant on inking and plate wear. With the 'E' and 'A' it may be constant but I do not have a copy at this stage. Will keep it on file. Tasnaki |

Tasnaki, Note that for my Q.9(iii) - your 6B-15, the break below E of POSTAGE is constant. Here is another example (watermark 68) :  Here is a different frame break below E of POSTAGE on a Watermark 40 Die I stamp:  |

I have several showing similar flaws but nothing constant. Some are left column positions based on watermark lines.
