Help Identifying Washington 3c Stamp

Hi All,

I am looking for help identifying this stamp please ?

Have you tried the StampSmarter website?

Use the "visual finder". Your stamp also has a nice date cancel to help you.
What do you find?

Thanks @Jr. Ratfish, so to me it looks like a scott 10 Type 1 imperforate but the date cancel to me looks like 1855 but that is when they started Perforating these stamps so interested to get a second opinion

Hi Wesleyhanes,

Your stamp doesn't appear to have the ink texture or impression of a #10. The 1851 orange browns typically have a bold orange brown color with high-quality ink and a nice impression. The stamp shown below is an orange brown #10A for comparison.



Determining which plate your stamp was printed from will help you identify the Scott number. I recommend you check the chart at the following link. Hint: The top of the top label block on your stamp was recut.

The last digit of the year-date cancel isn't clear, unfortunately. You can use the Postmark Reveal website to help clarify it. It could actually be 1858.

I encourage you to research your stamp with the above information and let us know what you find.

Edited to remove recut comment

Wesleyhanes - Your stamp is 68R4, Scott #11. Plating was easy. No inner lines, recut upper label block (Plate 4). The upper label block is joined to the upper right diamond block at both the top and bottom of the label. The only position on plate 4 as such.

Thanks for the help much appreciated
