This stamp was listed as Pos-08B-Type-i on p.10 of <PRAT8307> with the base of the 1 in the fraction missing on the left.  I have thus called it Type-iL to distinguish it from Pos-15B in which the base of the 1 in the fraction is missing on the right and which I have called Type iR.

Sc015-Pos-08B-TypeC-mint-ex-Prats
This stamp comes from the block of 3x6 03A-08C and is indeed Pos-08B, but it is Type C, not Type iL.
This is a rare case where two different types of the surcharge shared the same plate position.

This stamp seems to be Pos 12E but the left end of the 1 serving as fraction bar is not missing; instead, the left foot of the Y is broken. Note also that the top horizontal bar of the right hand of the Y presents a dip in its center.
I have labeled this variety Type S2 while further verifying the plating of this stamp and obtaining other Type S surcharges for comparison.

Pos-06B is Type C, but this position has a thinner bottom right foot of the letter Y.
This seems to be a constant variety.

This stamp was listed as Pos-08B-Type-i on p.10 of <PRAT8307> with the base of the 1 in the fraction missing on the left.  I have thus called it Type-iL to distinguish it from Pos-15B in which the base of the 1 in the fraction is missing on the right and which I have called Type iR.

This stamp seems to be Pos 12E but the left end of the 1 serving as fraction bar is not missing; instead, the left foot of the Y is broken. Note also that the top horizontal bar of the right hand of the Y presents a dip in its center.
I have labeled this variety Type S2 while further verifying the plating of this stamp and obtaining other Type S surcharges for comparison.
