However, several 6¢ commemoratives were issued during the 8¢ period, as this denomination met the postal card rate. These include the 6¢ Wolf Trap Farm stamp from the National Parks set (Scott 1452), the 6¢ 1972 Summer Olympics - Cycling stamp (Scott 1460), and the 6¢ Electronics stamp (Scott 1500). Plate number singles of these 6¢ stamps appear with the 8¢ commemoratives.
Proof examples with reverse R The reverse R appears on a number of single color rotary press proof sheets. It is known inverted, as well as sideways with the straight side down (rotated -90º).
