Among the examples with first day of issue cancellations is the error "Zanzidar", "d" for "b" and small second "z", missing from the full pane of 120 offered as Lot 1. There is strong evidence to suggest that this second "z" version preceded in the same R.4/6 plating position the normal second "z" version that was in place by the time of the 30 November 1895 sheet shown as Lot 1
