1935 Irish 2d coil stamp : ウィキペディア英語版 | 1935 Irish 2d coil stamp
The Rare 2d Coil was an experimental vertical coil stamp, denominated 2d, issued by the Irish Post Office in 1935〔Foley (1995), p.31〕〔While Stanley Gibbons refers to this stamp as being issued in 1934 in their catalogue, Foley illustrates archived official correspondence dated 1956 between Stanley Gibbons and the Department of Posts and Telegraphs that confirms 1935 as the year of issuance.〕 and is one of the scarcest, and most valuable, Irish stamps. It is often referred to by stamp collectors simply as "Scott 68b" or "SG 74b",〔 being the Scott and Stanley Gibbons stamp catalogue numbers respectively. ==Design== Philatelists refer to the configuration as '"perf 15 x imperf",〔Bugg (1996), p. 15: Bugg improperly identifies the stamp as perf 14 x imperf〕 or in the USA as "perf 15 horizontal", because the stamp is perforated 15 gauge (holes per 2 cm) on the horizontal and imperforate on the vertical edges. Because of the shared design it appears identical to the first 2d value definitive stamp issued on 6 December 1922 with the ''Map of Ireland'' except for the imperforate vertical edges.〔 It uses the first Irish watermark that was a stylised design of the two overlapping letters 's' and 'e' making an 'se' watermark representing the name of the country ''Saorstát Éireann'' (Irish Free State).〔
