Can anyone let me know whether Bavaria Scott #54 (One Mark value) is more common on white paper or toned paper. The 2014 Scott Catalogue lists the white paper as more valuable but stampworld.com lists the "reddish" paper as more valuable. I understand the pictures probably don't help identify which one I have. I assume I have the more common one but the conflicting values leave me asking my question.

Did you already check the watermark ? The tone paper stamp is a different color and is worth more , Look at Scott's 73

It would also help if you'd use black for a background instead of the pink, and show the backs as well

The watermark is vertical. It looks like Scott 54 is the only one with a vertical watermark.

Yours is the same color as mine, Scott 73 has a different watermark.

Thanks rogdcam, Am I correct in saying the two Mark is white paper? I can see the difference between the two Mark and the three Mark but the one Mark is harder for me to see.
