Canada Stamp #711a - Lady's Slipper (1978) 10¢
Plate 2, NF/NF
SKU: CAN-0711A
Mint - Very Fine Never Hinged - Colour Shift
(M-VFNH-001)
Nice 10¢ "Lady's Slipper" definitive with a substantial leftward colour shift on the engraved dark green inscriptions, which especially affects the flower outline, giving it an odd appearance! Alignment errors are not that uncommon on this issue, however this copy really stands out from the others!
NB: The #711a is frequently confused with the #786 because both stamps have the same design and perforations of 13.0 x 13.3! The difference is in the printing method, as the #711a is printed by lithography and has a smooth background, whereas the #786 is printed by photogravure and has a mottled background!
