What I collect: I collect world wide up to 1965 with several specialty albums added due to volume of material I have acquired. At this point I am focused on Canada and British America. I am always on the lookout for stamps and covers with postmarks from communities in Queens County, Nova Scotia. I do list various goods including stamps occasionally on eBay as hdm50

It appears be a 1945 1 Lire postage due Scott J10. The colour looks a bit off as it should be black on green but maybe your scan is distorting the colour or my screen may not be showing it correctly.

Hugh ( hdm1950 ), I think the green part is just supposed to be the wavy lines underlying the black printed part, and it is a rather pale green at that. The paper is buff or cream in color. I think the photo is representative of what the stamp is supposed to look like. If you do a Google search for "poste vaticane segnatasse stamp" and look at the images, several of this one lira stamp show up, and they all look like this. |

Chris Beryllium Guy I should have been more specific. I actually have this stamp and know the green is a printed pale colour. I was not seeing green in the waves in the scan. The 1 lire green is a bit harder to see than the others. Here are the ones I have.  |

Thank you. I know next to nothing about Vatican stamps, nor I collect them.. These shown, belong to a collection/hoard, that I'm helping to sale. I realized that there was the complete set, and thought that could be interesting for TSF friends to see them.
