2¢ Carmine 104LR50

"the retouched line slanted away from the frame into the bottom margin… others (include) 104LR50, in which the length of the line is shorter"

Research notes:

Reiche #51 Q Reiche states "sloping line below CEN of Cents"

Leopold Beaudet determined the position using the plate proofs at Library and Archives Canada.

Leo's Notes

  • Retouch to top frame at left stops in left outer oval above right leg of third A. 7.6 mm from left frame. Cavity at right end of the retouch.
  • Engraver’s slip in bottom frame. Begins below E in CENTS, strong under most of the N, and weak under the T, ends under the S.

We use Statser to measure basic website usage without cookies. The system processes page views, clicks, form submissions without form contents, referrers, browser/device information, error pages, approximate visit duration, and pseudonymous visitor keys. Full IP addresses are not stored permanently by Statser; they are processed briefly on the server to create a pseudonymous visitor key, apply technical exclusions, and optionally resolve approximate GeoIP information. If GeoIP is enabled, the IP address is checked locally against a MaxMind GeoLite2 database to determine the approximate country or city. The visitor IP address is not sent to MaxMind. MaxMind is contacted only to download and update the GeoLite2 database. Detailed data is deleted after the configured detail retention period. For long-term trends, Statser also stores aggregated daily values without individual visitor profiles.
