The whole purpose of the bi-dimensional barcode is to make the stamp unique. The code should be scanned by the letter sorting machine and removed from a list of active stamps. Once struck from the list, it cannot be used again. Add to that the security slits that are added to damage the stamp when removed from paper.

Yet, the marker monkey's purpose of being remains defacing stamps.

Not mine.

I saw them on a different site and thought that they belonged here.

I just received a small shipment from eBay. The dealer always does his best in packaging and stamp selection on the envelope.
A bit out of focus, but you can still see the beautiful stamps.
Too good to be true? Of course, that's why god created the flees, the ticks, and the USPS marker monkeys.

From SCF 2015. Meant to address the non cancellation of stamps, to date I have only four examples of this cancel. Seems the UK postal service cannot be bothered too much about Revenue Protection

This is not only PEN cancel, but the postal worker in St Paul Minnesota did not believe the S/S was valid postage, so RETURNED to me FOR POSTAGE. NUTS.
