Yes! The left half of the KG6 ½d Fresh Water Lake definitive is UNDENOMINATED and therefore could not reflect a ¼d denomination. Two covers are known to me and I am curious as to whether the ROSEAU */FE 9 40 and */FE 19 40 cds are genuine! The PAID AT NEVIS Crowned Circle cover is completely bogus albeit the QV 1d carmine stamp is genuine. The author being well aware that genuine strikes of both the Crowned Paid and Nevis cds have an oily appearance at this period has cleverly used his paint brush to simulate the oily stains within the Nevis despatch cds and soiled the cover at top left for good measure to simulate toning. The ENGLISH HARBOUR backstamp is also bogus and on similar covers the author often just used the day slug in different dates like the Roseau cds's. The PAID at NEVIS crowned circle appears on the QV 1d carmine and horizontal pairs QV ½d dull green, but only as "loose" stamps, no genuine covers existing. So why not make one!! To me there exists a similarity in the handwriting style of the Nevis cover and Dominica FE 19 40 cover, and the style of the cds's look as if they have come from the same stable.
