In the back of the Scott Catalogues is a section called the Illustrated Identifier

If you look there, you'll see something like this...

From Seven Seas Stamp Identifier circa 1962

I would hazard a guess Old man Hermes as pictured here is the most printed male in all of philately?

Hi Tina.
A series of four (2, 6, 10 and 20) were issued in 1899 and then re-issued in 1901 with varnish bars. I don't know how easy or difficult it ids to see the varish bars in used copies. The 1901 with varnish bars were then re-issued in 1905. As usual I'm late with info but still hope it helps.
