I thought it was finger prints of some sort. But the swirls are from the design of the stamp not a finger print. It looks like a printer error to me.

Perhaps it was dirty and someone tried to clean it?

If they did, you might as well throw it into the fire, or better still put it on ebay like other guys do and type "ERROR, RARE STAMP". and ask for a $1.000.000.00...haha

I think that is the best explanation. Someone left it in a pocket when they washed their whites with bleach.

smauggie,


It only has that one bend in the corner and as far as I can see the discoloration only goes within the bounds of the design.

Hi Joe,

I honestly cannot tell whether or not you are pulling my leg. The left and right margins of the stamp are generously splashed with pink ink, which is definitely oustide the bounds of the design.
