Sources & verification

Partially verified

Research notes: The member description explicitly maps all four locations to values. Photographs are credited collectively to Maria Christina Bugeja and Mariah Grech; individual photo credits are not assigned without a source. MaltaPost's original issue technical table supplies the 14.1 × 14.2 comb perforation and Maltese-cross watermark; these are not extrapolated from a later reprint.
