2002-2015 American Design Series

Self-adhesive pane stamps

Scott 3749, 1¢ Tiffany lamp, 2007 date, plate number P111111

Plate P111111 has a 2x5 (10) PPD on the front of the pane.

The 2007 date applies to the print run. The 2003 copyright date is because the design was used for the 1¢ coil stamp in 2003.

Scott 3749A, 1¢ Tiffany lamp, 2008 date, die cut 11-1/4 x 11, plate number S11111, S22222.

Plate S11111 has a 2x5 (10) PPD on the front of the pane.

A reprint in 2015 was assigned plate number S22222. For the reprint, the copyright and 3x5 (15) PPD appear on the back of the pane.

A reprint in February 2019 occured for both S11111 and S22222.

Some 2008 dates might appear as "2003" if the green and white inks were not perfectly aligned.

Scott 3750, 2¢ Navajo necklace, 2004 date, plate number V11111

Scott 3750 var, 2¢ Navajo necklace, 2004 date, black shift causing partial obliteration of the denomination, plate number V11111

Scott 3750 var, 2¢ Navajo necklace, 2004 date, black shift downward causing partial overlay of 2004 date, plate number V11111

The 2004 Navajo Necklace stamp was reprinted for the 2007 rate change from 39¢ to 41¢.  Minor shade differences have been reported in the reprinting but they are apparently insufficient to justify a major or minor Scott number.

Scott 3751, 2¢ Navajo necklace, 2006 date, plate number P11111

Scott 3752, 2¢ Navajo necklace, 2006 date, plate number S111111, Peak/Valley die cutting (the upper left corner starts with a "peak")
