I recently bought a cover that I haven't seen before; it's a Gemini-Titan 11 (GT-11) recovery ship cover with a USS Guam hand cancel dated September 15, 1966 but it has a red GTA-10 Beck rubber stamp cachet on the front and a red GTA-11 Beck rubber stamp cachet on the back. I've seen, and have, GT-12 recovery ship covers with a USS Wasp cancel that have a GT-11 rubber stamp cachet but this is the first time I have seen a GT-11 USS Guam cover with a GT-10 cachet.

I looked at Dr. Ross Smith's Recovery Ship Website and didn't see one of these covers listed.

Has anyone else seen or have one of these covers?
