Hello. I got these is a collection I won in an in person auction. I believe they are US Scott # R129, R130, and R131.
Can anyone help to confirm I am correct or am I off base?
Thanks,
Bob

They would be if authentic. The perforations are all crudely manufactured, and the designs do not appear to be as sharp as they should for the authentic printed stamps. These may be photocopies of the stamps from and auction catalog or other source. Does the paper appear to be like other stamps of this issue?

They are not genuine, the perforations are terrible. They are copied; examples like these have been around for years. Get your money back.

Thank you for the replies. I figured they were not real when I first saw them. I just needed to make sure. The good thing is these had no bearing on buying the collection which was mostly worldwide and Trains as the theme. There were other stamps as well.
Thank you again for the replies.
Bob
