Scott #82 8¢ Orange Re-entry Plate Position # 1L67 This is the second re-entry recorded by Peter Spencer. The details of this re-entry are very subtle. The main feature is the doubling of the portrait oval below the ‘E’ of the lower left 8. There is also doubling in the top stroke of that 8. A small ‘hook’ is found in the centre triangle of the last ‘A’ of CANADA. There is doubling of the upper right corner of the outer frameline, and a short vertical line of doubling inside the inner white frame to the right of the upper right maple leaf. Finally, there is doubling of the left side of the lower left numeral 8. Courtesy of Peter Spencer
