Embossing on QV SP Stamps

Hi All,

As part of the SG SP catalogue updates we are looking at including a small section in the appendix (following the under/overprints) on embossing applied to stamps presumably as another form of security.

Currently we are only aware of those from the firm "Novelli & Co." and even these only from a handful of examples on different denominations/plates.

If anybody has or knows of ANY examples of embossing on SP stamps (Novelli or otherwise) could they please let me know:
  • Stamp Issue
    Plate number (if applicable)
    If images are available (or could be provided at some point)
A few more have been recorded on LE issues so the same applies if you have any information on any of these as well.

Thanks,

Andy
