CommentaryP79 is a distinctive variant of P89. Whereas the letter A and the three crescents are identical, the papers differ in the form of the letters M and S and in the position of the letter S. In the cornermark of P79, the letter S – in P89 positioned right of the letter A – is mirrored and repositioned left of the letter A. In addition, in P79A the letter M is positioned differently and in P79B the letter M is narrower than in P89.
