I just came across this two days ago when going through a pile of stamps that were given to me by a friend.
Look carefully to see that the vertical die cut perfs are off by 50%. It first caught my attention when I noticed that the corner perfs were oddly shaped and then I saw the elongated diagonal cut that should be on the corners.
It is smack dab in the middle of the stamp.
Maybe this is fairly common, what do you think?
