Other values in the Dr. Sun Yat-sen series of 1931-37 can be confused with other issues. Here, a simple example of the different issues :
A and B : 1931-37 issue. A with double circle in the sun (1st London printing) and B with dark circle in the sun (2nd London printing). Both types belong to this series.
C : 2 $ issue - 1931-37 issue is blue / yellow-brown - but the series were extended in 1945-46 with this olive-green 2$ stamp. The stamp shown is part of the 1st series, but were added later.
D : different design (2nd design) - not with Corithinan columns but flower ornaments.
These stamps belong to another series.
2 ct to 2 $
If we consider the 'double circle' issue as the first issue and the 'full or dark circle' as the second issue, than we can already devide the following stamps into two groups.
2 ct double circle and full circle |
The 'double circle' issue is the easiest to recognise.
This issue has 7 stamps: 1 - 2 - 4 and 20 cents; 1 - 2 and 5 $.
Only the one cent (see previous post) has two different types.
double circle stamps |
All other values and/or colours come with a full circle - or with another design in the frame.
