| Here is another 1d that I can't find in my cat. The right side frame is a mess,probably just an inking issue but there are a couple of dots by the last A in Australia also under the Emus beak that may help with plating. The bottom frame under One Penny looks to be thinned. Thanks Paul http://i1217.p... |

| Rackrunner, my initial thought is that this is Goornong. The arcs suggest that it could be Goornong R.S.; possible if this is a single watermark. The office closed in 1916. mcgooley I have been reading the letters as "ORNG", is that how you see it? Single Watermark :wink: Thanks Paul |

| Hi Rackrunner Yes, a fantastic effort by GUTTERS. I just thought I would add, in case you hadn't already worked it out that the stamp is listed in BW- I don't know what watermark it is- as 102 or 103h. Not many people bother with the 2d Die 3. It's a pretty boring stamp with mainly very minor flaws... |

a possible candidate for the wiki ?
Does the straight edge on the bottom confirm it is a booklet stamp?
