Hello, do you think about this stamp?
2 colors, Pink & Olive (original color: olive)
Rare error?
Thanks.

First of all hi cebrian, welcome to the forum.

As for your stamp, even though I know very little about Russian stamps
the pink colour could have been caused by a chemical. Bleach?

Even if it were a true colour error the condition of the stamp
makes it basically worthless in my opinion.

Thanks Lithograving.
The stamp is a color error,
not caused by chemicals.
Do not know if there will be more stamps like this that show, so I wonder if this error is common.

This isn't an error. The original olive colour has changed in some areas of the stamp as a result of light or the action of some chemical as lithograving has suggested.

I would have to agree with lithograving and nigeic that some "agent" - bleach, light- altered the stamp.
