My album shows slots for both 51 and 58 but I don't see what the difference is supposed to be. Scott catalogue doesn't seem to say the difference.Image Not FoundPlease show me what I can't see!! Same confusion on # 53 & 60.

The difference is in the style of the zeros in the surcharge, first ones are narrower than the second. (think that's the right way around.)
Edit, on that basis the middle stamp, first row is the earlier issue, all others are from second issue.

same for 52 and 59, and 53/60 and you can see the difference in the styles. looking at your 52.
Wonder if you may have 2 of the 58 and 60 in your album.

The bottom left stamp has the Madagascar title in a different colour print to the others, or so it seems in the photo. Could just be the image and it's rendering on my screen.

Really good advice. Those thicker "0"s hard to measure. So now I remove and look for the right ones. Thanks. Kent
