I have been working on the varieties of this group of stamps. There are a lot so it is easy to find varieties in this group. 
I looked up articles that show the varieties and then I started looking. Using a microscope with 10% magnification i found the following :
5c sleigh ride. Blue spot in front of horse. Yellow spot in front of horse. Black vertical line where the drivers hand meets the reins. A blue wedge between the sleigh and the top of the horses tail. 
A red thread at the bottom of the horses tail (pos. 1) a blue thread under the sleigh. A blue thread behind the sleigh. A red thread under the sleigh and a black mark on the horses blanket. There are also a few with donuts. 
These are ones I found easily although I am sure there are a lot more. 
Happy hunting.

A great tool on this Forum is the "Portal" (link in the top menu line). One click and you can see all the recent action. Try it!

Another good one is the "View New Posts" in the line below the black bar. "New" means for you! It remembers what you have seen and returns only stuff you haven't.

This Forum is moderated. In order to keep the tone of the Discussion Board professional and respectful we expect all Members to abide by the following terms of conduct:

a) The "Dinner Table Rules of Discussion" that my mother taught me: No politics, religion or off-color comments/jokes. Moderators will not allow an otherwise non-political discussion to drift into political commentary.

b) personal / ad hominem attacks or disparaging comments will not be tolerated. Communication must remain respectful. (Some forums get downright nasty). If you have a complaint about a member of the KSC, pursue it through official club channels, not publicly in this Forum. (i.e. contact a member of the executive).

c) Buy and sell ads should be about specific transactions, items, lots, wanted. General advertising and promotion of a member's business is not allowed.

d) Messages will appear immediately, however are subject to immediate removal or modification by a Moderator if they break the rules.

e) Private communication is available through the Forum. If you want only the recipient to see a response, find and use the "Private Message" system. Abuses of the Private Message system are subject to disciplinary action if reported to the Administrator (including the revoking of Forum privileges).

e) Posting of a message to the Forum accepts these terms, as well as any additions or modifications that may be posted here.

f) This Discussion Board may be seen by everyone, but only registered club members may post.  
DO NOT put contact or other personal information (names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses) into your posts. Registered users can click on your profile and get whatever contact detail you have chosen to share with club members. That way, they are hidden from everyone else.

g) Registration for this board is open only to club members. When you register, the webmaster will check your name and email address against the club member list. If you aren't on it, your registration will be denied.
