Details
As easy way tho differentiate between the Harrison printing and the Enschedé printing is looking at the position of the ellipse on each side of the stamp. On the Harrison printing it is placed after the 10th perforation hole from the top, whereas on the Enschedé printing it is placed after the 9th perforation hole from the top.
