My Kiloware Shipment Just Arrived Yesterday

hi all

my kiloware just arrived yesterday.
i have been going through the box.
i have found tons of plate numbers and other interesting items,

i hope it is ok that I post my finds.

here are two items that I found interesting

i noticed a strip of 6 # 2115's

it had [ T ] plate numbers on all stamps
my scotts did not even list a [ T ] plate number
but a plate number on all the stamps????






a second stamp that I found interesting was the wide bottom margin of a # 1395

is this common???

Sorry I can't answer your questions, but definitely keep posting them and the scans.

I know you've been anxiously awaiting this kiloware, so congratulations on finally getting it and getting started

Keep sharing,
KirkS

By the way, someone smarter than I will be along to answer your questions soon...

Nice to hear about your new family additions.

I know nothing about USA stamps but the last stamp
image looks like a booklet stamp because of the large bottom margin.

Happy Hunting and Happy Stamping. KGV

i thunk you are right about the bottom scan.
i found another stamp the same type with a large margin at the bottom..
this is the first time I have seen it in this issue until today.

Lonedan,

What gives with Eisenhower's forehead above his left eye? Or is that a crease in the stamp. I've never seen that before.

it is not a crease.
i will have to compare it to another of my copies.

Yes, that wide bottom margin is fairly common.

the bigger question is about the plate numbers [T] on every flag stamp???

i think I found the answer to the strip of 6.
it is a 2115c.

can anyone tell me a more recent value for a 2115c...my scotts is from 2007.
and how would you value a strip of 6...

thanks

here are three of the interesting stamps that I found in this purchase.
i am still going through all of it.

the only problem is that I am going to have to get some glue to paper my walls with all of the liberty bell ...forever stamps.

here are the precancels I found.
i like the .14 Indians

i am still looking through this group

i am finding some interesting stamps.
this was in the group
2464a mottled tag pn 5
it seems to be a better plate number according to my scotts

i hope all here do not mind me posting my finds.

they may not be the greatest finds but I am enjoying my looking

I for one, and I think others too, are enjoying your buying and searching and finding and exploring. Fascinating and educational and what will turn up next?

I have never really looked at the coils with plate numbers on them before with such interest. Or the other things you are discovering.

Thank you for sharing your story and hopefully continuing to share it.

these purchases are always interesting.
i am very curious about another stamp type now.
i am looking to find out about a 2466 "Bronx Blue"
i do not have a pnc numbered but have about 15 copies of this stamp
i will google to see what it may look like.
i know that color is hard to tell on the computer.

here some other finds I have made.

these are from the uk.
i really have no idea if there are anything of value.
i have noticed that the uk has had many well made stamps.
can anyone tell me if there are anything interesting or have any book values.
my last book from scotts is from the 1980s
