I was given this mini sheet from stamp collecting month 2019.
Apparently this particular version was only available to subscribers to the post office eBulletin and has features not available on the normal sheet
Does anyone know what they are?

Hi Horamakhet
The image isn't big enough for me to fully identify what the differences are, but I did find these differences.
On the normal sheetlet I found 5:
1. There is no bird sitting on the far right edge guttering of the roof
2. There is no beetle on the fence
3. There is no butterfly above the chicken coup
4. There is no bird sitting on the chicken coup
5. There is no second butterfly flying near the apple tree

Hi Rob,
Thanks for that.
It is another gimmick I suspect to encourage persons to subscribe to the e bulletin, and give Australia Post another chance to sell "special stamps" to subscribers.

You need an ultraviolet light receivers of the bulletin also received a small ultraviolet light it shows rays of light coming from the top R/H corner if it's the free one you should be able to see them by shining a light at an angle it should show them up.

" ... another gimmick I suspect to encourage persons to subscribe

No kidding.
As long as MNH and completion accumulators
are willing to play the part of the golden
goose, there will be "Face on Mars" souvenir
sheets and stamps from any postal agency
with a printing press.
My long term goal has always been to
choose neatly cancelled postally used
examples.
Sometimes I cringe when I give in and
buy something as interesting as this
garden sheetlet.

Couldn't agree more Charlie most new issues you never see on mail (unless used by a collector)yet AP pushes out new issues nearly every week and they know full well it's not for posting it's for collectors.
I would love to know the value of all the unused decimal stamps floating around must be millions of $$$$ Hate to think what our actual postage cost would be if collector didn't buy new issues?
