Here is one that I have been wondering about. Has anyone seen this variety before? Is it just an inking error or constant plate flaw. Both zeros are missing ink at their bottoms. Opinions? Thanks! Wolf-==-

Yes, just a lack of ink. There are numerous varieties of these stamps though since quality control for postage dues was not very strict

Thanks for the input. Interestingly enough that both missing ink is in about the same location. I guess I'll just put it in my "insect excrement" section. Cheers! Wolf-==-
