ReplyDeleteThank you, I am aware that it has been seen but don't have any source of these yet.
DeleteHello, I have just picked up a sheet of the 20p stamp with the security inscription inverted. I did check stocks to see if any more but sadly to no avail. Would be interested to hear if any more discovered yet.
ReplyDeleteWell, Super Stamp Man, which 20p is that ?
DeleteI think that you should perhaps describe the 10p, 20p and £1 as M14L to be consistent with the £1.28. (Or, of couse, describe the £1.28 as MAIL to be consistent with the 10p, 20p and £1)
ReplyDeleteThe new 20p stamp, I have ten sheets . I specialise in the 1p crimson issue and have these in up to multiples of six including some Cylinder pieces.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting; perhaps you could provide a picture for everybody to see (ian@norphil.co.uk); what sheet numbers are they?
DeleteMy son showed me a sheet of the 10p which he bought in Lewisham yesterday afternoon. The printing is also inverted. Told him to hang on to this until I find out how many sheets are out there. Will get him to make a scan and send in. Thanks, Desmond.
ReplyDeleteThank you Desmond - as well as a picture showing the invert it would be useful to know the printing date and sheet number - many thanks!
DeleteWhat is actually inverted? Are you saying that the 10p sheet inverted is in addition to the 20p sheets?
DeleteMy son has gone ahead and sold the sheet to a well known stamp error dealer. I did tell him not to be so hasty! Desmond
DeleteI have sheet of 10p wording invert. Been offered £500, wanted £600 if any readers interest
ReplyDeleteIf I had just brought a sheet of 10p for £2.50 and was offered £500.00 I know what I would have done. TAKEN IT! These sheets are new and others appear to have found them so there could be a lot of them. I agree with Ian’s comments that this is all looking a bit suspect and I do wonder if these do actually exist.
DeleteWell, well. None of the 'well known stamp error dealers' and Machin specialists who have been contacted about the 10p or 20p inverts know anything about them.
ReplyDeleteNobody with any technical knowledge of the printing process can understand how it can happen, aside from some really imaginative suggestions, which are unlikely to be true.
Neither Super Stamp Man nor Desmond was able to provide us with the printing date, sheet numbers or better still a picture. Maybe Sweet Jamaican Baby can?
In the absence of any proof, other dealers are very sceptical about the existence of these and think I am being spun a yarn. Perhaps somebody can prove otherwise?
I agree Ian, I was very keen to see these. I doubt they exist and would love to be proved wrong.
