A VFNH single of the 45c multicoloured Hairy Woodpecker from the 1998 Birds Of Canada Issue with pink spot on tree trunk variety, possibly constant or tertiary. More study of full panes would be required to establish whether or not it is a constant or tertiary variety. The issues of this period are printed in much smaller panes, which likely means many panes in the layout, increasing the probability of tertiary varieties.
