Scott #1CVP106 VARIETY $5.00o "US POSTAGE CORRECTION" [2009 Stamps.com, Scott picture code CVPA73 variety] NH VF. This is a variety in two respects. This "CORRECTION" text/feature was a simplistic term for users who had already printed stamps prior to a postage rate change and then the user needed to print an additional value after a postage rate change to meet the new rate. However, a user could use this feature to print any value within the limits of the software. These particular stamps were printed by a user who mailed high-cost packages and who wanted the convenience of having high-value stamps available. The other variety aspect is that this Scott number was for the Stamps.com-supplied die-cut stamps with pre-printed frame, etc. However, per the introduction in Scott for this catalog section, the user could print on anything (blank paper, blank label stock, envelopes, etc.) that they could run through their printer. This example is printed on self-adhesive full-page imperforate (no die cutting) label stock. Each stamp in such a sheet is unique, with a different serial number extension (i.e. B08675.xx where xx is different on each stamp); this serial numbernig is also expressed by differences in the lower right corner of the the QR-type code. This item offered is a SINGLE imperforate stamp from a particular partial sheet (see website image) -- interesting strips or blocks from this partial sheet may be available pro-rata. Though such varieties are perhaps still too modern to be called scarce, they are rarely seen offered. REPRESENTATIVE image of stamp design. |
