UCV - unlocated constant variety

Flaw in lower left of 'S' of 'AUSTRALIA'

Third watermark
- two examples from different settings of the NWPI overprint
- second example is from a block of 4 of which stamp #23 has a constant flaw
- the flawed 'S' is therefore from either position 28 or 58

Possible location within a sheet of 240 shown below

Image

----------

1st copy (NWPI Setting 4 - 1916-1917)

Image

Image

----------

2nd copy (NWPI Setting 5 - 1918-1922)

UCV - unlocated constant variety

Disturbed shade lines to below WA

Third watermark
- Another Stampboards' member posted an identical flaw from first watermark

Sheet of 240 below
- blacked out sheet positions indicate known plated positions
- yellow sheet positions indicate possible sheet positions for this UCV
- constant NWPI overprint varieties for positions 25 & 26 or 55 & 56 eliminate these from possible plating positions
