It is true that I always refer to plate varieties, but it is true that we have two types of plate varieties:
1. Master die varieties that are a special, repetitive type of plate variety.
2. plate varieties that are not repetitive in the sheet, and occur in the plate after it has been made.

Es verdad que siempre me refiero a variedades de plancha, pero es verdad que tenemos dos tipos:
1. Variedades de plancha proveniented del cliche patron, o maestro, las cuales son variedades de plancha especiales, y se encuentran repetidas en la plancha.
2. variedades de plancha (no repetitivas, que ocurren en la plancha despues de que ha sido confeccionada.

Tony,
when discussing the (photographically reproduced) offset-litho stamps of the PyR I issue I suggest we have 3 types of "plate characteristics":
- 1st occuring in every single stamp of the (printers) sheet i.e. it was present in the original photograph or got there when reducing the size to that of a stamp;
- 2nd occuring in a base block [of 10=2x5?] i.e. it originates from the reproductive steps needed to come from the original to the base block. From there on - by reproducing the base block as many times as necessary to form a complete printers sheet - it will be seen some 10 times or more on a sheet of 10x10.
- 3rd occuring only once in a printers sheet as the result of a "damage" of the plate.
I am using the term plate here, but it may as well be a curved plate around a cylinder or a cylinder itself.
I would only use the term "plate flaw" for the 3rd type of characteristic IF we can establish its occurance.
In my following examnple of the 1peso no-borders I will make it acceptable that all characteristics shown are of the 2nd type apart from the one (the dot underneath the I' ) that is of the 1st type.
