Hello-
Does anyone know about Western Australia watermark errors, rarity, and value? This particular stamp has the watermark crown over "CA." Insread of the normal "C" which is supposed to face downwards, the "C" on my stamp is standing upright and facing to the right (like this "C"). Does anyone else have a stamp with this kind of error? Any information is greatly appreciated.

Hello ! I already saw this "error" but it's not an error. I think that's just another kind of watermark.

Captain stamp-
I see so it is not an error the only listing I could find with this stamp perf at 14 was the watermark with the "ca" facing downward. Have any idea when the watermark on my stamp was in use and what stamps it was on? Thanks.

The watermark looks normal to me, and will be sideways on these stamps.

The stamp is Scott 66.
