Often seen with faded colour due being soaked. But this copy seems good to me.<br /> <br /> Tonight tip then is not to soak older stamps in too hot water or for too long, especially if they have a useful catalogue value. :-) <br /> <br /> Enjoy your collecting <br /> <br /> Best wishes....

Nothing really of high value mind you, but still worth recognising the difference in my view.<br /> <br /> From top to bottom / left to right<br /> SG 387 with perf 13 x 11½ with a catalogue value of £2.50<br /> SG 387b perf 13½ with a catalogue value of 10p<br /> SG 387c with perf 14 with a catalogue value of £1.00, and finally<br /> SG 387d with perf 11½ x 11 with a catalogue value of 10p<br /> <br /> Small catalogue differences but have you got all 4 in your collection?

Stunning in my view. Anything special about it? well yes there is. It has an inverted watermark.<br /> <br /> It is always worth checking the watermark. Normal unmounted mint is catalogued at 5 GBP, The inverted watermark is 11 GBP.<br /> <br /> If this is a gap in your collection why not have a look at my <b><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://cddstamps.com/bidstart-sales/"> store</a> </span></b> or copy this link http://stampwants-stamps.bidstart.com/Hong-Kong-QEII-SG-207-MUH-wmk-inverted-/62976059/a.html or go to www.cddstamps.com and click Bidstart Store on the menu bar.<br /> <br /> Have a great weekend Michael<div style="clear:both; padding-bottom:0.25em"></div> </p> </div> <p class="post-footer"> <em>posted by cddstamps @ <a href="http://cddstamps.blogspot.com/2015/10/hello-here-and-so-that-means-time-for.html" title="permanent link">8:38 PM</a></em> <a class="comment-link" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/28719887/8246302511271125571"location.href=https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/28719887/8246302511271125571;>0 comments</a> <span class="item-control blog-admin pid-1909794407"><a style="border:none;" href="https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=28719887&postID=8246302511271125571&from=pencil" title="Edit Post"><img class="icon-action" alt="" src="https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif" height="18" width="18"></a></span> </p> </div> <!-- End .post --> <!-- Begin #comments --> <!-- End #comments --> <h2 class="date-header">Thursday, October 22, 2015</h2> <!-- Begin .post --> <div class="post"><a name="10598757496389109"></a> <div class="post-body"> <p> <div style="clear:both;"></div>Hello, I have just had a few hours studying some Hong Kong stamps.

This has a short leg to the R in the word Dollar. It has a very nice catalogue value of £190. It is on chalk surfaced paper. If it were on ordinary paper it has a catalogue value of £325. Still, no complaint about having the cheaper copy is there. The second stamp is SG 156, This also has a short leg to the R but there are three varieties, Ordinary paper, Chalk surface paper and a yellow orange and green shade. Catalogue £65, £90 and £275 respectively.

As many readers will know I was in the UK a few weeks ago and I managed to get a copy of the Rugby World Cup stamps mailed to me.<br /> <br /> Hope you enjoy seeing this se-tenant pair. Not my sport I have to admit - especially as I was there to see England lose to Australia :-), and then, last night, my other adopted country, from my father's side, Scotland, also lost to Australia :-(<br /> <br /> And, I think the stamps are pretty boring as well!, and no way could they have inspired the teams to win. :-)<br /> <br /> If you are looking to get these stamps, do watch the listings in my online store - <a href="http://cddstamps.com/bidstart-sales/"><b><span style="color: blue;">details here</span></b></a> - I will be listing these soon, along with the other values.<br /> <br /> I maybe show some of the others over the coming days, but, as I say, they are pretty boring I think, just being in black and white. Yeah, go the All Blacks !!!!!!!!!!!! hahahaha<br /> <br /> Michael www.cddstamps.com.<br /> <br /> <br /><div style="clear:both; padding-bottom:0.25em"></div> </p> </div> <p class="post-footer"> <em>posted by cddstamps @ <a href="http://cddstamps.blogspot.com/2015/10/hello-new-theme-this-week-as-promised.html" title="permanent link">5:11 AM</a></em> <a class="comment-link" href="https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/28719887/5887845778392122812"location.href=https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/28719887/5887845778392122812;>0 comments</a> <span class="item-control blog-admin pid-1909794407"><a style="border:none;" href="https://www.blogger.com/post-edit.g?blogID=28719887&postID=5887845778392122812&from=pencil" title="Edit Post"><img class="icon-action" alt="" src="https://resources.blogblog.com/img/icon18_edit_allbkg.gif" height="18" width="18"></a></span> </p> </div> <!-- End .post --> <!-- Begin #comments --> <!-- End #comments --> <h2 class="date-header">Saturday, October 17, 2015</h2> <!-- Begin .post --> <div class="post"><a name="5217229101705980232"></a> <div class="post-body"> <p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGrnoj835-MSa1NOjShSODCHr1HeR9OBM-HUXHpSR3WbVEnUEVE72BVE503xF4OQdxRTY52nE28QKFLyLfOkov7yEXQwlcUfJa6v96t9NWD-7cXGrGTTYHg4TmM0jE_SoCm8n2/s1600/bee-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGrnoj835-MSa1NOjShSODCHr1HeR9OBM-HUXHpSR3WbVEnUEVE72BVE503xF4OQdxRTY52nE28QKFLyLfOkov7yEXQwlcUfJa6v96t9NWD-7cXGrGTTYHg4TmM0jE_SoCm8n2/s320/bee-2.jpg" width="228" /></a></div> <br /> <span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17.5636px;">Thank you to all who wrote and who entered the Honey Bee competition. </span><br /> <span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17.5636px;"><br /></span> <span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17.5636px;">Yes that image from the Royal Mail stamp was actually of a bumblebee - I guess Royal Mail didn't have enough images of Honey Bees So here is another of the issue.

This is because bumblebee colonies do not have the same extended colony life cycle that honey bees have.
