Germany-----Plate Flaw On Inflation Issue

Here is a neat plate flaw ,that I added to my collection ,First look seems to be a inverted "3" in the 20,000,000.Then I thought it was dirt or a foreign object on the printing process but with the fine lines intact ,its more likely a damaged plate .

Perf and sawtooth roulette ?

I heard Michel has been listing more of the inflation varieties. You might want to check into it. I really like the roulette.

Rod, the perf and sawtooh are separate varieties of the same issue, MiNr 319 -- MiNr 319A (perf) and 319B (rouletted).

Michel notes that printing errors are so common with the inflation issues that it doesn't attempt to catalog them all. It does assign a small premium to plate flaws (€5-10), but refers readers to Günter Bechtold's Plattenfehler-Verzeichnis Deutsche Inflation 1916-1923 (plate flaw directory of German inflation issues) for detailed listings.

Thanks Postmaster.
