It's a pink shade. I can send you an image, or post it on SCF, but it's not listed in the Scott 1840-1940, and it's not listed in my 1940 Scott catalog. Am I missing something? I suppose it could be a color changeling, but are you aware from any other catalog (I know there is a specialized Portugese Colonies catalog available from the P.C. Society) if there a is known 7c Ceres in a shade other than ultramarine?<br />Thanks much!

The numbers in the checklist are the "old" numbers found in the 2011 Scott Catalogue , while the "new" numbers are in my 2014 Scott. BB, of course, was constructed during the era of the old numbers. I haven't changed the numbers to the new numbers for the colonies, as the changes were ongoing in the catalogue through 2016. When I obtain the 2017 catalogue, I will go back and change the spaces to the "new" Scott numbers.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02024632082262694589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6190925726844102948.post-83270989485872918372016-09-21T06:26:24.489-07:002016-09-21T06:26:24.489-07:00#3 is actually 20r Bistre not 10.
