The Seal of the Nizam was issued in 1905, 1908 and 1912 with different
perforations and printers. Official overprints were applied in 1911 and
1912. Hope this helps. Let me know if you want a copy-and-paste of the
details and I'll send them to you with an email.

It is the difference between the Allan Wyon plates
and the Bradbury Wilkinson plates.

Underneath the "G" in postage, one plate
has a double stroke in the Indian script in the
right hand top quadrant.
The other plate has only one.
(goodness knows why SG do not use that ID)

If someone can point to the plates for which, it
will be appreciated.
I do not have the pieces on hand.
Thanks.

I think one can overdose on identifying
Indian Princely states stamp Tony,
It must be taken with short attention spans.
The 1871 2a Hyderabad has 8 shades
Once again I need to have read the manual,
I missed the second Plate B&W
I have no idea how people measure those
"rough perfs"
Cheers.

SG O39 if perf 12 1/2, O39b if perf 11 1/2,12, O39c if perf 11, and
O39d if perf 13 1/2. None of them worth much, I'm afraid. There are
probably also compound perfs, but Gibbons ran out of patience by that
stage.

The shades are a pretty good indication of the plates with these
issues. These deep shades are BW plates.

Thanks Tony, I'll remember the deep shades, however,
wouldn't it be easier to express BW has two strokes here

Wyon only a singleton.

FYI
salvaged from the floor sweepings.
1. The "Annie Oakley" of postal clerks
gave a "socked on the nose" perfectly in the frame
it only needed a few degrees of rotation to be a perfect 10.
2. The most niggardly of cancellations.......just "OUT" and date.

Yep, I had a bad day, that day
the Wyon differs, I have since observed
in the distance between the two lower
curved blocks of script/English.

My big problem was, I didn't have enough
examples to compare.

The script is the same with both designs
and probably refers to the value.
