Lion Embossed - Die Varieties

[Revenuer]

On one of my Embossed threads Ross from Tasmanian Stamp Auctions suggested a thread to try and separate the possible multi dies used per value. This is that thread!

I only have a limited collection of Lions so I can only show what I have or other auction graphics [noted].

I will start with the 15/- as I have several.

I am sure [fingers crossed] this will not end up all mixed up with all the different values recorded.

ALL ADDITIONAL GRAPHICS WELCOME.

I could be wrong and the two types i am showing below may just be wear to the one die. The more we can get to display the more chance we have of working out all possibilities.
