lol no - I want to know.  I have a collection that my dad started up in the 70s and I'm thinking of selling it - just trying to get a rough idea of value.  I have one particular book of stamps that's very rare.  If it's E1 perforation it's worth about £250, but if it's E2 it's worth a lot more.  I want someone to tell me what E2 perforation actually means (google not been much help) so that I can identify my stamps as E2 Cheesy

Theres usually two small red circles if you look at it through a magnifying glass bottom left hand corner.

Oh forgot to say, my Uncle collects (or used to collect) stamps, if you have no joy, let me know and I'll send him an email and ask if he knows.  I won't just do it cos I hardly speak with him and he's moved to Spain (not that holds me back via email) 

Hell, I may email him anyway!
