Scott #54
Five Cents
Major Re-entry 1
Plate 10, Position #10
This first re-entry was first brought to my attention by Michael D. Smith, who submitted these scans showing the details of this newly discovered re-entry.
NEW INFO: Pierre Hudon discovered an upper right corner block of four of the 5¢ showing the re-entry in the UR stamp of the block and notified me of its position. Michael Smith recently purchased this block of 4 from Pierre with full corner selvedge, placing the re-entry at position #10 on the sheet of 100! As there was only one plate used for this value, we now know it is from Plate #10, Position #10.
Thank you, Pierre! (Scroll down to see Pierre's discovery block, scanned by Michael D. Smith.)
ADDITIONAL INFO: Pierre has informed me that he also has another corner block of six that DOES NOT show the re-entry in position #10! This is most interesting, as the 5¢ Jubilee was only printed from one single plate (Plate 10) and with the limited run, it has been assumed that the plates were never re-worked or repaired following their original state. However, blocks WITH and WITHOUT the re-entry prove that this is not true, and that for some reason this plate was indeed re-entered during its lifetime!
Thank you for that info, Pierre!

This re-entry is more subtle than the above. There are marks in CANADA POSTAGE, as well as the left side of the right portrait oval.
