Specialised Machin stamps listed by Connoisseur Catalogue numbers.

  

Note: This section includes many varieties, including stamps with short and inset phosphor bands (and notched bands) and stamps with additional phosphor bands caused by phosphor encroachments. For a short or inset band stamp to meet the correct criteria, the band must be clear of the orthodox perforations. Similarly, phosphor encroachments must extend to at least (just) beyond the orthodox perforations. For further details on these varieties, please visit the Connoisseur Catalogue online resource, refer to the pages dealing with phosphor band varieties, and read the relevant stamp listing Section.
