bright blue Queen Elizabeth II Wilding with Tagging Variety, mint never hinged upper right corner block of four, with each stamp showing one wide 8.5mm running down its centre. The Online Tagging Database lists this variety as Type W2aC, quotes
only 50 mint copies are known, and values each stamp at $300. We have seen another reference to the fact that only 80 mint copies are known, and we assume that this is the only UR corner block known. A rare variety. (Scan a) |

 1978 14c
red Parliament Coil Lot with Tagging Varieties, with a total of 129 stamps (in singles, pairs and various length strips) having tagging varieties being only one tagging bar, either at left, or at right, a few with only minute bars, caused by
shifting. The Online Tagging Database lists variety tagging at left (G2aL) at $20 each and at right (G2aR) at $10 each, so an average of $15 each would catalogue $1,935. Also includes 7 pairs where the score line did not completely traverse the
paper, making them appear as imperforate between (these all have either one or two tag bars but were not counted as part of the above group). Last but not least is a vertical strip of 5 of the 8c blue Queen Elizabeth II Caricature issue (#593) with
vertical perforations shifted slightly left, making for only one thick tagging bar appearing at left and no bar at right (these catalogue $25 per stamp by the Online Tagging Database, G2aL). An interesting group. (Scan a)
