_Remarks._—The Two Cents was not issued until two or three years after the other values. Issue IX. Early in 1888. _Six values._ Engraved and printed in _taille-douce_ by the British-American Bank Note Co., of Montreal, on white wove paper; yellowish gum; machine-perforated 12. The entire sheet of the Ten Cents contains fifty stamps, arranged in five vertical rows of ten; while those of the other five values are composed of one hundred stamps each, in ten rows of ten. Designs: HALF CENT.—A plain upright shield, with ground of horizontal lines, shaded at either side; bears in the centre, the head of a Newfoundland dog enclosed within a pearled circle, surrounded by a circular band of solid colour, inscribed in white Roman capitals with the name of the Colony at the top, and the value “HALF CENT” at the bottom, the two last words being separated by a small upright tablet, with rounded top and pearl border, containing “½” in white Arabic numerals. TEN CENTS.—Brig in full sail, to right; curved label of solid colour above, inscribed with the name of the Colony; similar straight label below with the value in full, both inscriptions being in white Roman capitals; small scroll-like ornaments at either end of the bottom label; circle of solid colour, with Arabic numerals of value at each side of the stamp. Scroll-like ornaments complete the design, which is evidently copied to some extent from the Thirteen Cents of Issue IV. The One Cent, Two, Three, and Five Cents are the same designs as the preceding issue, but with the colours changed. Shapes: Small square for the Half Cent, upright rectangular for the One and Three Cents, oblong rectangular for the other three values.
