Examples of Plate Number Singles
from other countries
In addition to collecting plate number singles of U.S. stamps, many
APNSS members are interested in plate number singles and marginal markings
of stamps from other countries as well. The printing methods, plate
numbering schemes and other marginal markings used by other countries'
governments and their security printers are quite similar.
