Stanley Gibbons catalogue numbers
The latest issue of Gibbons Stamp Monthly includes basic catalogue listing for the Machin Anniversary definitives, excluding those in the miniature sheet. The only stamps to get a new listing are:
SG 2133 - 20p double-head from PSB (the original 2133 was for the 1st class which becomes 2133a)
SG U3003 - 1st bright scarlet MPIL M17L (gravure) *
SG U3007 - £1 magenta MPIL M17L (gravure)
SG U3966 - £1 gold embossed from PSB (which SG records as having clearer embossing than the same stamp on the MS).
The stamps from panes 1 and 2 of the PSB (the 'Design Icon MS' stamps) are numbered 3958-63.
* Although listed as 'bright scarlet' this stamp is actually the original vermillion (red) colour. When this is corrected the number should remain unchanged.
The bright scarlet stamp but in litho was in the Windsor Castle PSB and is numbered SG U3016b.
