General Philatelic/Identify This? : Greenland cancels: Postal or CTO?
Author
Postings
I sometimes have trouble distinguishing a CTO (cancel to order) strike versus a postal cancel. I have several Greenland stamps with cancels that I think are postal cancels, but I'm can't be certain given the positioning of the strikes on the corners; this is so similar to what many CTOs look like. Can anyone tell me if these are postal or CTO cancels? Thanks.

I think that the first and fourth are first-day cancels and the rest are normal postal cancels.
