1995-2005 American Transportation Series

This loosely-defined series consists of various coil stamps of stylized transportation methods, used for bulk rate and pre-sort mailing.

Scott 2905, (10¢) Auto bulk rate coil, small 1995, plate number S111

Scott 2905a, (10¢) Auto bulk rate coil, medium 1995, plate number S222

Scott 3228, (10¢) Bicycle self-adhesive presorted coil with small date (~1 mm), plate numbers 111, 221, 222, 333

Scott 3228, (10¢) Bicycle self-adhesive presorted coil with small date, plate numbers 344, 444, 555

Scott 3228a, (10¢) Bicycle self-adhesive presorted coil with large date (~1.25 mm), plate numbers 666, 777, 888, 999

Die cut varieties: straight corners such as 3228a P# 999; rounded corners such as 3228 P# 222. A few were die cut both ways, with one variety scarcer than the other. Scott does not assign a separate catalog number or even mention the variety since the gauge itself is identical, although this is inconsistent with the large hole / small hole listings for Liberty Series coils. According to the Plate Number Coil Collectors Club (PNC3), P# 221 with rounded corners pictured above is considered rare.

Scott 3228 var, vertical misregistration of colors most evident in black cap of handlebars, date overlap with P, and uneven plate numbers 555

Scott 3228a var, (10¢) Bicycle self-adhesive presorted coil with large date, hi-brite paper, plate number 777

It is unclear why the water-activated variety is assigned the higher catalog number. For all other coils, and for regular stamps as well, water-activated stamps appear first, then self-adhesives.

Scott 3229, (10¢) Bicycle water-activated presorted coil, 2 mm date, plate number S111

Scott 2908, (15¢) Tail Fin water-activated postal coard presort coil with blue 2005, plate number 11111
