Well, Alan, I was going to strongly disagree with you, but then I scanned the back and saw things I couldn't see under my 10X loupe.
I figured the overlapping perfs that you saw were just chads that had not come out.
But the scan showed an angular thin in the corner in question.


Then when I held the stamp up to the light I could see it much clearer. It appears in the photo as a white shape.

So I do believe you are correct. A repair. Which begs the question, why would anyone go to the hassle of repairing such a valueless stamp? Unless of course the mistake that caught my attention was done on purpose to make collectors like me think they'd found something rare.
Almost, but not this time! Conspiracy everywhere!
Thankyou Alanl.
