A 2¢ Carmine Re-entry Search

From the pull down menus select:
2¢ Carmine under Denomination,
Sheet under Format,
and Re-entry under CPV type.
As we had noticed doubling "In and below the CA"
so we enter that in the search field.
and we only have 3 stamps to consider

A single position is found.

Each of the 3 records can be
searched in turn.
A window will open on the page,
leaving your search intact.

Let's modify the search criteria.

From the pull down menus select:

Zone Search

Partiality Implemented...

The "Zone Search" is an experimental search feature. When fully implemented, it should facilitate searches based on the location of the CPV on the stamp.

Access is via the "Zone Search" button at the Upper Left of the Advanced Search page. A link to a detailed explaination of the "Zone" system works is provided.

Remember: this is not completely implemented with the full data base of images and descriptions.
