This is the first time that I have tried to upload images. I scanned them at 1200dpi, so I hope they are Ok for a a fairly close scrutiny. I obtained these 6 stamps more then 25 years ago, probably at an auction in Ottawa, but otherwise the details are unclear. I have had a look at images of forgeries for these stamps and they look ok, but this is my first go at this. I know there is a pdf circular that is available but I can not seem to lay my hands on it now. I have some duplicates: 2 of 11A, an uncut pair of 19 ( Suspect it is red-brown) as well as 1 of #20. Any comments re authenticity are appreciated. Also if there are any suggestions re adding album pages. Thanks, John

I'm not very good with colours but the 4d 1960 stamp should be in the 1961 section. The 4d 1960 is orange vermillion or just orange depending on which catalogue you use.
The '?16 or 15A' is by all probabality a 15A as the 16 is a rare stamp with a very high catalogue value.

Thanks, I missed the 4 pence all together and I appreciate the colour help. I usually defer to the lower value when making a decision in respect to a colour. I found the Ed Wener pdf re forgeries. I will try to go through each stamp carefully.
