· Chambon Perforations
A type of comb perforation used on the 1960 New Zealand pictorial issue. A Chambon Perforation is where one complete row is perforated plus half a stamp on either side. The next strike of the perforator finishes the half completed row plus another row and a half. This is of interest to collectors as, where the two strikes meet, the line of perforations is usually uneven.

· Charity Stamps
Stamps sold with some of the cost going to charity. Health stamps are Charity Stamps.

· Christmas Stamps
Special issues that are issued for the busy Christmas postal season. In New Zealand, Christmas stamps have been issued since 1960.

· Coil Stamps
Made from sheets of stamps divided horizontally and joined together by the selvage into a long strip, or coil.These were coils of stamps that were used in stamp dispensing machines outside post offices. After several experiments in 1905 and 1906 to determine the best method of separation from the machine, ordinary sheets of stamps were split and joined together. This method of production continued till 1978 when the machines were phased out.

· Collectors Folder
A special pack produced by New Zealand Post containing all stamps, miniature sheets issued by New Zealand Post in the calendar year. The pack includes all commemorative and definitive stamps and special souvenir and philatelic exhibition issues.

· Comb Perforation
Called a comb perforation because the perforating pins look like a comb. A long row of pins with shorter rows at right angles perforate the tops and sides of one or more rows at the same time. Stamps perforated with a comb perforator have four identical corners.

· Commemorative Cancellation
A special cancellation produced to mark a special event.

· Commemorative Stamp
These stamps are usually on sale for a limited time only. They are issued to commemorate a person, achievement, event or anniversary.

· Compound Perforations

· Corner BlockCorner Block
A block of stamps in a corner of a sheet of stamps​

 

[روبرت سلاح]

· Counter Coils
Were made up as coin coils but with the selvage join showing upwards on which a number was stamped or printed, for accounting purposes. These coils were for use at post office counters where there was a large demand for certain values. Such coils were first issued in 1947. They ceased in 1975.

· Culler Facer Cancellor

· Denomination
The postage value as printed on a stamp.

· Die
The name used for the piece of me-tal or other material (the New Zealand Newspaper stamp was printed from a wood die), usually carved by hand, which was covered with ink and against which paper was pressed when the stamps were being printed. These days, the die has been replaced by a plate.

· Die Proof
The very first stamp or stamps printed from the die as a test to see what the stamp will look like.

· Double Cancellation
See Duplex Cancellation

· Double Perforation
Two lines of perforations close together, that can be caused by a sheet of stamps accidentally going through a perforating machine twice.

· Duplex Cancellation
Duplex Cancellation is a date stamp showing the name of the post office at which the cancellation was carried out as well as a numeral obliterator (also called Double Cancellation).

· Embossed
A stamp which has its design or part of it raised from its surface. The indices of some postal stationery and vignettes of some early stamps were embossed.

· Embossing
Used mainly on postal stationery, this procedure involves the paper being distorted by pressure between matched (male and female) dies.

· Engraving
Stamp designs are usually engraved on, or carved out of, steel or other materials. The design is either cut into the me-tal (recess) or the background is carved away, leaving the design itself standing out (raised or letterpress​

· Fiscals
Stamps issued mainly to allow people to pay government charges or fees, such as duty, tax, or a fine. From 1882-1953 New Zealand definitive stamps had the words ‘POSTAGE & REVENUE’ on them to show that they could be used either fiscally or to pay for postage. Stamps with ‘STAMP DUTY’ written on them were fiscals but these were also used for postage.

· Foxing
Unusual name used to describe very small marks of rust on a stamp (See Rust).

· Frank
Marks, signatures or labels which allow a letter to pass through the mail system without payment. In New Zealand, some government departments, Government Ministers, etc, are allowed to use ‘franks’ without paying the postage directly.
·[FONT=&quot] Franking Machine [/FONT]

In New Zealand, machines used to keep an automatic record of the amount of postage used and this amount was regularly paid to the Post Office. Today postage is paid in advance and the meter on the machine is set at the amount paid for (Also see Meter [/FONT]​

· Life Insurance Stamps
Special postage stamps used by the New Zealand Government Life Insurance Department. They were first issued on 1 January 1891. They were finally withdrawn from use on 30 September 1989 when Government Life became the Tower Corporation. (Also called Lighthouses).

· Lighthouses
See Life Insurance Stamps

· Line Engraving
In this type of printing, the design is cut out of a steel plate as lots of fine lines. This is a type of recess printing.

· Lithography Printing
As with photogravure printing, this type of printing uses lots of tiny dots to make up the design. But, where in photogravure printing the dots are all the same size, in lithography printing the dots are different sizes. The larger the dots, the deeper the colour that is printed and the smaller the dots the lighter the colour printed. As most newspapers are printed using lithographic printing, if you look at a newspaper photograph with a magnifying glass you will see the pattern of dots. On a stamp printed by lithography the lettering is not normally broken down into dots but, where the stamp is printed by photogravure, even the lettering is made up of lots of tiny dots. Lithography printing is done by printing from a completely flat printing plate that has the stamp design marked on it by a special photographic system.

· Local Stamps
Local stamps are issued to pay the post office to deliver a letter locally. An example is special stamps used on letters sent from an offshore island to the mainland. This sort of stamp would be known as local carriage stamps.

· Logo Block

· Miniature Sheet
A sheet of stamps issued in a small format. A miniature sheet can contain between one and six stamps of varying denominations. The stamps are contained within an overall illustrative panel. Some miniature sheets are overprinted or produced to commemorate national and international stamp exhibitions.

· Miniature Sheet Booklet
Presentation booklet containing miniature sheets of each stamp of an issue, plus background information on the stamps​

 

[روبرت سلاح]

· Mint Condition
Mint stamps have not been used for postage, and accordingly bear no cancellation. A mint stamp should be in pristine condition (See also Mint Unhinged and Unused).
· Mint Unhinged
The des-cription of a stamp on which the gum does not show any hinge marks (See also Mint Condition and Unused).
· New Zealand Stamp Collection
A hard bound book produced in November each year by New Zealand Post featuring selected postage stamps issued during the calendar year (published since 1984).
· Newspaper Stamp
A stamp specially issued for the low postage rate used to post newspapers. New Zealand released one in 1873 and also printed the same design on newspaper wrappers.
· Numeral Cancellation
In the early days of the post office every post office was given a number. A Numeral Cancellation was one that showed the number of the post office cancelling the stamp.
· O.P.S.O.
These letters stand for ‘On Public Service Only’. The New Zealand Post Office rubber-stamped these letters at an angle across stamps for use on overseas mail between 1891 and 1906.
· O.S.
These letters stand for ‘On Service’ and were overprinted on Australian stamps between 1931 and 1933. Before and after this time the letters were perforated into the stamp.
· Official Stamps
Stamps used on government letters. In New Zealand, a number of stamps were overprinted "Official" between 1907 and 1954. In 1954 a special set of stamps bearing the word 'Official' was issued.
· Offset Printing
In this type of printing, the printing plate prints the design of the stamp onto a rubber cylinder and the cylinder rolls against the paper and this prints the design of the stamp onto the paper.
· Opitical Character Reader
Machines in mail centres that ‘read’ the address on letter mail then print a small barcode on the lower right section of the envelop or card (for sorting purposes). OCR’s can operate at the rate of ten mail pieces a second.
· Overprint
Extra words, letters, logo, symbol or numbers printed on the face of a stamp some time after the stamp has been printed.
· Pair
Two unseparated stamps.

[روبرت سلاح]

· Paper
What a stamp is printed on. Paper comes in a number of textures, surfaces, and thicknesses. Some of the types of paper used in stamps include: 1. ChalkyPaper coated with a chalky coating for security reasons. If someone tries to remove the postmark, the surface of the stamp is easily damaged. The paper has a slight shine on it and you can discover whether the paper is a chalky paper by rubbing it with silver. On chalky paper this leaves a kind of pencil mark. 2. GraniteIn this paper you can see fibres that look like veins in granite. This sort of paper was used in the 1972 New Zealand Christmas stamps. 3. LaidThis is a paper in which you can see vertical and horizontal lines close together. 4. PelureA very thin but hard paper that you can almost see through. This sort of paper was used in some issues of New Zealand’s Full-Face Queens. 5. RibbedPaper with lots of small ridges in it. 6. WoveA paper with a smooth, even surface, this is the type of paper most used for the making of books, bank notes, and stamps.
· Paquebot
The French word for packet boat.
· Paquebot Cancellation
Used on mail at sea. When the mail arrives in a port, the postal authorities usually applies this Paquebot cancellation.
· Penmark Cancellation
A pen line made by the delivery officer through a stamp. This is normally only done if the stamp has missed being cancelled in the ordinary way.
· Penny Black
The world’s first adhesive postage stamp, issued by Great Britain on 1 May 1840.
· Perfins
Stamps perforated with letters, figures etc, to prevent people who work for firms and larger users of stamps from misusing the stamps.
· Perforation
Rows of small holes punched along the stamp margins to make the stamps easy to pull apart. If a perforation is described as 11 x 14; the first figure refers to the horizontal and the second figure refers to the vertical side of the stamp. (See also: Blind Perforation, Chambon Perforation, Comb Perforation, Compound Perforation, Double Perforation).
· Perforation Gauge
A gauge or scale that shows how many perforations are on every 2 cm of a stamp.
· Philatelic Bureau
A postal authority’s official mail order source of recent stamps, first day covers, etc. (See Stamp Centre).
· Photogravure
With this type of printing, the stamp design on the printing plate is made up of many tiny dots that, when printed on the paper, make up the picture. The dots are so small that a magnifying glass has to be used to see them. They are printed by using a plate with a large number of tiny holes, called cells. These cells have different depths: the deeper the cell, the more ink it will hold, and the deeper the colour it will print. If the cell is shallow, the colour printed will be lighter. The depth of the cells is very small - fractions of a millimetre - and there can be over 13,500 cells to a square centimetre! A photographic system is used to make the printing plate. This is a type of recess printing​

 

[روبرت سلاح]

· Pictorial
A stamp with a design that isn’t a portrait, number, or a coat of arms.​

· Pigeon Post
Messages sent by pigeon. Two companies used pigeons to carry messages to and from Great Barrier Island and Auckland city at the end of the 1880’s.​

· Plate
A name for the piece of me-tal or wood that is pressed against the paper to print stamps. With use, a plate gets worn out. For this reason, more that one plate may be used to print a large number of stamps.​

· Plate Block
This term refers to the bottom left corner of a sheet of stamps containg the printer's and designer's names. This block also includes the colour bars used by the printer during the printer during the printing process. On sheets of New Zealand Post stamps their shape is thematically linked to the stamp topic.​

· Plate Imprint Block
See Plate Block.​

· Plate Number
The number printed on the selvage of a sheet of stamps to show which plate was used to print the sheet of stamps. Some of the first stamps in Great Britain had the plate number as part of the design of the stamp.​

· Postafix Coils
These were stamp coils used by private firms in hand held dispensers called Postafix Machines. The device cut the stamp from the coil, wet the gum and stuck the stamp onto an envelope. Up to 1978 coin coil stamps were used. In 1978 a special 10 cent stamp was issued for this purpose.​

· Postage Due Stamps
Labels or stamps that were placed on mail items when the sender had not affixed enough postage. The delivery officer would collect the face value of the ‘Postage Due Stamps’ from the person who the letter was addressed to. Special Postage Due stamps were issued by the New Zealand Post Office between 1899 and 1951.​

· Postal Fiscals
Fiscal stamps (see Fiscals) which could also be used to post letters, parcels etc. This usually only happened when there were shortages of stamps or some sort of an emergency.​

· Postal Stationery
Any wrapper, envelope, card, or aerogramme etc that has a stamp embossed or printed on it.​

· Preasure Sensitive Stamps
See Self-adhesive Stamps​

· Presentation Pack
Special packs produced by New Zealand Post for an individual stamp issue or special selection of stamps.​

· Printing Techniques
Many different ways are used to print stamps. Some of these ways include Embossing, Line Engraving, Lithography, Offset, Photogravure, Recess, and Typography​

.​

 

[روبرت سلاح]

· Provisional
A stamp made because there is an unexpected need for such a stamp. A stamp whose face value has been changed by an overprint is also called a Provisional.
· Railway Traveling Post Office
A post office in a special carriage on an express train. Here, the mail is sorted, received, and delivered on the way.
· Recess Printing
This type of printing is the one most commonly used to print stamps. The design is engraved on the printing plate and the hollows or recesses that are made are filled with ink. When the surface is wiped clean of ink, some ink still remains in the hollows. The plate presses against a rubber cylinder and the pattern made by the ink in the hollows goes onto the cylinder. The cylinder presses against the paper and the pattern or design is printed on the paper. You can often tell a stamp that is printed by the recess printing method because the design stands up a bit from the rest of the paper. If you run your finger gently over the surface of a recess printed stamp you will feel the design.
· Registered Watermark
A registered watermark is where there is one complete watermark to one stamp (Also known as a Single).
· Relief Cancellation
A handstamp used only temporarily in cases of theft, loss or the breakdown of the usual means of cancellation.
· Reprint
The name for an official reprint of a stamp by a postal authority. Reprints can often be recognised by the fact that the colours are slightly different or the paper is different.
· Reversed and Inverted Watermark
This watermark reads the wrong way round and is upside down when viewed through the front of the stamp.
· Reversed Watermark
A reversed watermark reads the wrong way round when viewed through the front of the stamp.
· Roller Cancellation
A roller stamp that is rolled across a stamp to cancel it. This is usually used on bulky or strange-shaped mail, such as parcels or magazines.
· Rust
The term for brown spots on stamps. These are caused because the stamp has been moist for too long or there has not been enough light in the place the stamp has been stored. (Also known as foxing.) If you look through your stamp album every month or so, your stamps should not get rust marks on them as turning the pages will "air" the stamps. To take rust off stamps you can use some special chemicals. Many collectors think that they have rust on their stamps but the marks on the stamps are either just dirt or the stamps have a water stain on them. Dirty stamps should be cleaned with a very soft rubber, while stamps with an old water stain can be cleaned with plain water.
· Second Side Faces
The 1882 New Zealand issue with Queen Victoria facing to the left and with the words 'Postage and Revenue' printed on the stamps
​

 

[روبرت سلاح]

· Self-Adhesive Stamps
While most stamps have gum on their back, which has to be moistened to stick the stamp on the envelope, self-adhesive stamps are pre-gummed and are sold with a backing sheet from which they need to be peeled. When mint self-adhesive stamps are mounted in your stamp album they should be mounted with the backing paper still attached to the stamp.
· Selvage
The border of paper around a sheet of stamps.
· Se-tenant
Meaning 'joined together', this term describes two or more stamps which are connected but are of different designs and or values.
· Sheet
Stamps are usually printed in sheets of 100, 50 or 25 stamps, depending on the size of the individual stamps.
· Sheetlet
Similar to miniature sheets, they can contain ten stamps of one or more denominations within a plain or decorative border.
· Slogan Cancellation
Most mail sorting and stamping machines allow the postal administrations to stamp an advertisement or notice on an item of mail alongside the date stamp. This is known as slogan cancellation.
· Soaking
To put stamps in your album you must take them off the envelope or paper that they have been stuck onto. To do this, you must soak the stamp in cold or lukewarm water for five to ten minutes. After this, the stamp will float or peel off the paper easily. Once off the paper, place the stamp face down on a piece of clean blotting paper or towel and let it dry. Some stamps have ink that runs easily, so be careful. Very old and rare stamps are best left on the envelope they came on as they are likely to be worth more on the envelope, even if the envelope is torn or dirty.
· Stamp Centre
The New Zealand Post Stamps Centre produces and assembles value-added stamp products such as the New Zealand Stamp Collection, presentation packs and first day covers, and fulfils customers philatelic orders.
· Stamp Clubs
Belonging to a stamp club is a great way of learning about stamp collecting. Stamp clubs have meetings and exhibitions, and often put out newsletters for club members. You can also buy and sell stamps through your club. There is probably one in your town.
· Stamp Hunters Club
New Zealand Post,s Junior Stamp collecting Club. When you join Stamp Hunters, you will get a membership pack filled with free stamps, a handbook with lots of great tips, a cool membership card, some stickers, the latest magazine and a calendar.
· Stamp Pack
A pack of stamps sold to collectors by New Zealand Post that contains Special Topic and Commemorative postage stamps issued from October of one year to September of the next. Miniature sheets, Definitive, special souvenir and philatelic exhibition issues are not included

· Surcharge
An overprint on a stamp which changes or confirms the face value of the stamp.
· Traffic Lights
Solid circles of colour (one for each colour in which the stamp is printed) which appear on the margins of a sheet of stamps to help the printer check that all the colours have been printed correctly.
· Typography
Also known as relief, surface, or letterpress printing. This is exactly opposite to recess printing. An example of typography is a rubber stamp. The parts of the stamp that make up the design on the paper stand out from the surface of the stamp and the parts of the stamp that are not meant to make any impression are lower than the design area.
· Value Block[FONT=&quot]
This term refers to the top right corner of a sheet of stamps containing the dollar value of the entire sheet
