Dittrich, that is not a defect, that is a disaster! What makes you think it is a double transfer? Pictures are really too small to be able to tell!

Looks like there may be a double transfer on the top of the right stamp, the stamp in the last image.

I think your second stamp is a great example of a double transfer. Nothing at all wrong with having it in your collection while you wait for a better example of that particular plate position (if you can find one). I think the paper falls within the range of what one would call normal.

Your stamp on the right side has a great double transfer above the right top corner "2" and scrollwork on top right side. Agree that you should keep this as a double transfer example until you get a better stamp!

It has an example of a "slip transfer", a type of double transfer that occurs when the transfer roll "slips" while the position is being entered. This is a fairly common type of double transfer on this stamp and a little searching should find much nicer examples than this one.
