Notes:
1. The 3c value of Perak was similarly overprinted for use in Selangor. The 3c of Selangor has been reported but I believe this is an error for the Perak stamp.
2. Forbin lists the 25c similarly overprinted in black but I have not seen this.
3. J66a seems to be a separate printing rather than a plate variety and is not much scarcer than J66. All recorded examples are used between 2nd and 13th October 1900.

1. The 3c (R72), 5c, 10c, 50c and $1 (R78) are also recorded without stop after Selangor. It is not known whether this is a different overprint or a variety within the standard overprinting forme, or simply a regular stamp with the stop weakly printed.
2. I have seen black and white images purporting to show the bicolour 5c, 10c and 50c values with the same overprint but I have yet to see a colour illustration which would prove their existence. Barefoot lists these plus the bicolour 20c and $5, none of which I have seen.
