Baden 1850 Character ( A ) Is Wrong?

joe stamps ...


Do you know what are the three secret signs in the stamp????

We are talking exactly about this error, see the error at the top of the letter N.

I think of 'Error of Cliché' as being a stamp that unexpectedly has characteristics of another stamp.

The most common use that I see for the term is where a stamp is the wrong color for that value.

I am having a hard time imagining how your stamp has any error of cliché...?

If one were to have, say, a cliche error at the top right of a given plate, and were to print that plate
on both sides of a piece of paper, the stamp with the error on the front would have a normal
stamp on the back, and vice versa. Thus, the "Simon" error is supportive of a "wrong cliché"
theory. If this were the case, then the error must have been discovered early in the printing, and
the wrong cliche had to be replaced. Such was clearly the case with the Uruguay 240c error of
colour, among other famous classic printing errors. Although the above is suggestive, the means
whereby this error was produced (cliché or full sheet) is still an open question.
The Known Examples
The "Simon" error, despite having been certified by Brettl, Schmitt and Jakubek, has not
yet been recorded by cataloguers, not even the specialised Baden catalogue of Peter Sem.
The other errors known are:
The "Simon"

My friend cjd ,What this error is called your opinion?

I do not see any "cliche error" here, nor do I see even a constant variety. I see a NORMAL Baden Scott number 7 with a blob from the postmark near the "a".

Here is a real cliche error, the middle stamp in the block:



Note the 15 instead of 25.

Lingered a bit, and consider stamp again!
Postage stamp in the hands of 9 years ago and I look at him and I did not see a spot ink that you've seen
Thank you for your review useful.

See letter n in Baden and tell me your opinion

The red line follows the thin line that should form a part of the 'm'...there should not be anything in the area of the green oval.



I think the cancel has created two blobs - on the 'm' and the 'a' - that make the letters look like they have extra serifs.

Either that, or the stamp is not authentic.

I'm expecting to receive the 15-volume German Philatelic Society Forgery Manual this week, and will check for any candidates that match yours.
