Printings The easiest way to identify the two printings is to examine the
Duke’s head. On the Jumelle printing it is distinct and a lighter shade of
brownish-black, on the Rembrandt machine it appears slightly out of focus
and is a deeper colour.

Gutter Pairs The Jumelle printing provided a plain gutter through the
centre of the sheet - thus providing a new variety for collectors in the form
of a gutter pair. This sheet form became standard for all Commemorative
stamps from the Horse Chestnut Tree 10p issue of 27th February 1974, but
both values of the Royal Wedding issued on 14th November 1973 were also
printed with a gutter.
