VARIATIONS
ABOVE LEFT: Sheets
ABOVE CENTRE: Coils
ABOVE RIGHT: Booklet
The only way to determine if a stamp is from a sheet or a coil is if it has a section of the gutter attached or if there is a continuous strip of 11 stamps (coil only).
The booklets are more easily distinquished from the sheets when they exist as se-tenants with two different value stamps attached or if the values are the same but one of the stamps is inverted.
PLATE FLAWS
There are no major plate flaws.
