Argentina 1935-51 2 Pesos Plate Varieties

The "rust" block of four shown below has several plate varieties. The upper left stamp is a "diagonal scratch" stamp.
Shown immediately below and left is a detail of the upper left stamp, which is a "diagonal scratch between bottom lines of frame" plate variety. The lower right stamp in this block has a noticeable break in its lower outer frame line, shown immediately below and right. The bottom two images for the four details shown below are for the lower left stamp, which is a "single scratch to the left" stamp. The lower left stamp also has several blue scratches that overlap with the outer frame.
Below is a "dark" block of four that matches all of the plate varieties found on the "rust" block of four shown above.
The "dark" block of four shown below has several plate varieties. The center design shows slight doubling, as discussed elsewhere. The upper right stamp has a brown dot that overlaps with the blue center design.
The upper right stamp has a brown dot that overlaps with the blue center design.
The lower left stamp is a "diagonal scratch" plate variety. The lower right stamp has several breaks in the outer bottom frame line.
Below are two "dark" blocks of four with two major, identically placedm, plate varieties. The "top blue dot" plate variety is often found as a right edge stamp. However, in both of these blocks, this plate variety is at least one row away from the right side selvage. These blocks show conclusively that the "top blue dot" variety is found more than once on the 2 Pesos plate. Both blocks also have the "bottom blue dot" plate variety.
"dot on top edge of blue central design"
"dot on bottom edge of blue central design"
