Unfortunately it won’t let me upload a stamp for identification. I have tried and out in my user name and email but it says the wrong email or password. I have wrote both down and still will not work. Anyone able to help thank you

Oh it seems to have uploaded it in the wrong place. Sorry. I was trying to identify the other bluish one after 373. Thank you I will try and upload it in the proper place. Newbies who would have them

It is almost impossible to identify these shades from a scan. Considering the order, it would be the dull Prussian blue SG 373a. However, I have severe doubts about the catalogue numbers assigned to the other blue stamps.
Number 373 is the indigo-blue shade. Even if it is almost impossible to identify a shade, that stamp following the sticker with the number 373 is not an indigo-blue stamp.

Hi salmantino thank you for the information. I will take another good look in the stamp collection. No doubt I will have a lot of questions etc.

marbles, I am assuming you checked these stamps for the watermark. These come with two (the ½d and 1½d with three, and 1d with four watermarks) watermarks.

marbles, I checked my own collection of shades. It might be the violet-blue stamp, specialised shade N21(9). It is a very distinct shade.
