Queensland 1890 2 pence stamp. Reasonable somewhere that the watermark Q crown is only used for revenue stamps but here it is used on a normal postage stamp. I may be wrong,that's why I am refering to the experts here to advise. Also notice several printing errors which I have highlited in red. I would very much appreciate your advises and opinions. Thank you.

Hi Asj,

The watermark is a crown over Q. I can see the crown.

As to the flaws, I cannot help sorry.

Might the stamp be SG180?

Have you purchased a catalog yet? It would tell you the watermark on almost every stamp. Just purchase an older, used one for guidance.

I believe the joined LA is a known flaw, but I don't own a specialized catalog for Queensland.

Edit: I checked an SG catalog, and the joined LA is common this issue.
