| Abstract: | The Group 6 postage paid envelopes, first seen in early September 2011, are easy to distinguish from all the previous versions because of the new design consisting of a pink, black and blue border pattern edging the envelope all around. The pattern overlaps the folds, making it visible both from the front and back of the envelope. It is to be noted that for the first time these postage paid envelopes incorporate the postage rate of 20 cents in the imprinted stamp as opposed to the "Postage Paid" indicator, while in the initial printings they also had a validity date imprinted right under the stamp.
