Here's a pair I acquired a while back. Genuine on the left, forgery on the right.  |

This topic caught my eye, so see if I had some. Here they are (still hinged in grandfather's album). Anything unusual here? Thanks.  |

Paul, your stamps look genuine, the inscriptions on the bottom are quite clear. Otherwise nothing unusual. The stamps are common, but the history behind is very interesting. |

I have many stamps of the Army of the North, used and mint. The confusion I have is that I have a few that are perforated. I didn't see any mention of perf issues. Any ideas?  |

Itsjustme - Your stamps are philatelic creations. They were never perforated. |

Likely, they just were canceling full sheets so one missed the junction of four stamps. |

That it was a mistake when canceling is a possible theory... but the reality is that the CTOs, at least the ones I have seen (in this series and others like the one about Germany's 5-year plan and some more... ) double cancellation does not exist... under this precept, why is a double CTO cancellation error (I would even say triple is visible) more likely than an double original cancellation? Are there any special details to pay attention to? |
