I need the help from the GBPS members! Perhaps you can help me! I have got now 3 SG 421 with broken crowns. Since years I had one example and after a while I got the second one. I just went through a lot of 2d stamps and I´ve found one with a "half" break of the crown. It could be an early stage of the break.
Could you please check your stamps- it would be nice to know from which field this stamp came from! Perhaps somebody has got multiples or a sheet.

Early stage: Break on the left side (incl. small break of the frame line):

Later stage: Break left and right and frame lines:

Hey asmodeus,

I am almost certain I have something similar in my collection. Work must come first, but I will have a look through and see what I can find. I will get back to you as soon as I can, probably later tonight or tomorrow.

Have a Good One,

Asmodeus,

I have to apologize as this had completely slipped my mind! Sorry pal!

I finally have some time from work this week, and will have a look through the ones in my collection. It has been an extremely busy summer/fall season in the Toronto Film and Television industry and I haven't had many days off the last few months. At one point I was up to 38 days straight without a day off.

I will get back to you one way or another later in the week.

Have a Good one,

Skilo54
