Calder's notes

Main position dot in the center is very small partly on East.Ed. Senator Calder seems to have identify a possible flaw. Although he illustrated it he did not define it.

Kershaw's notes

The oval dot is very small and merges right with the blue surround. No other criteria

Morel's notes

The oval dot is merged partly with the dark blue oval. There is also a short disgonal line in the upper frameline, just above the 8 (pf 12.1)

Stamps from printing orders 1 to 5A were perf. 11.75, stamps from printing orders 5B to 7 were perf. 12 x 11.75 and those from printing orders 8 to 12 were perf. 12.
