So im online looking for Mystic Stamp coupons. I find 3 different codes that offer 100 MNH stamps for .99 cents each. I pay the bill wait the time and a few days latter I get my 3 orders of 100 stamps each. I was hoping that each pack would be different being that the coupon codes I used were different , at the time I was disappointed to see that they all seemed to be the same (they were all different, doubles had selvages on different sides or plate numbers)I went through 2 of the packs unhappy to finish the 3rd, so I put the 3rd pack away for over a year. One day with nothing to do I opened and start sorting out the 3rd pack. With my jaw dropping to floor I see a 1969 Scotts US C76 error stamp. You know the one with the American Flag missing from the astronauts shoulder, and face guard missing from its helmet. It was not quit the omitted red error, seeing that the yellow of the lander had red ink dots mixed in, but it was definitely an error. Not a bad find for under a penny a stamp. Very happy
