You know you shouldn't answer a question with a question, Blair? anyhows, 1. The stamp image shows the Prince of Wales, not Prince William of Wales. 2. The gentleman's attire, clashes with the Princess' azure blue day suit. (It should be light grey) 3. Although being from the House of Windsor, his necktie knot, is a "double simple" 4. The affectionate name of Prince William (Wombat) is not shown on the stamp. ( I have discounted the alternate title "Prince William of Whales" as the stamp would then have the WWF emblem) Have I missed any? "Blair" and how many errors are there on this Cook Islands stamp? http://www.vadeboncoeur.ca/pictures/n3400/n3403.JPG |

The Royal Wedding stamp was overprinyed for Prince William's birth. The 96c was overprinted on the regular Royal Wedding issue, but some were done on the Prince William stamp in error. 8*) Original stamp $2 issued 1981-07-29 (Scott 660). Original stamp $2 surcharged + 5c issued 1981-11-10 (Scott B98) (semi-postal) Original Opt. Prince William of Wales $2 issued 1982-07-12 (Scott 680). Original stamp # 660 $2 surcharged 96c issued 1983-08-12 (Scott 715). Error - stamp # 680 $2 surcharged 96c issued 1983-??-?? (Scott 715var).

I see,
I should have known, IIRC the Cook Islands attracts some disparaging press from those in the trade, with its plethora of overprints and errors. "Blair" Only one.

Yes, that's the point. If one had a full collection of the Cook Islands, it would be quite valuable fiscally, but philatelically pertinent? Somewhere between the Dunes and GB.
