Hi,

Do you know if a line at top of this stamp is common?

I try to find something like that without succes...

I checked a couple of these stamps and didn't see the line that your stamp has. Your stamp appears slightly paler than the others I have seen.

I'd suspect a doctor blade flaw. Just a transient flaw, of technical interest only.

That is not a doctor blade flaw,
It is simply the design margin being revealed by a slightly
misperfed stamp.
Not common, but not scarce either,

Well spotted though!

Spot the design edge at top of this one
(illustrates the varying results of colour too,
with different scanners)

Hi,

That's what I thought Rod222 but I did not find another one. Your picture confirm that.

Thank you!
