It doesn't photograph as well as it looks in person. Far more pronounced. This is the back, the gummed side. As has been previously discussed in this forum, the 1693 is rarer with the offset on the reverse.

So you're showing the backside (gummed) of the sheet or the front?

A møøse once bit my sister...

No realli! She was Karving her initials on the møøse with the sharpened end of an interspace tøøthbrush given her by Svenge - her brøther-in-law - an Oslo dentist and star of many Nørwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo Dentist", "Fillings of Passiøn", "The Huge Mølars of Hørst Nørdfink"...

Mynd yøu, møøse bites Kan be pretti nasti...

The answer is no. Unitrade describes 1693ii as "strong offset of the brown Moose on gum side (200 reported)". I don't even see an offset (or set off).

Cheers, Robert

The image generally shows through like yours does but the offset is quite strong. I forget who it was on here and not all that long ago that received a block from the philatelic center that had a really good offset so depending on how deep they are stacked there could be far more than the initial 200
EDIT- I think I recall that norwegian channel on my old 12ft satelite dish

Was it translated into Pidgin-English-Swedish as well?

Here is a topic that I started some time ago... https://goscf.com/t/22106. It seems that there are some degree of offset. I am not sure on how it would affect the value. When I started the topic, it seems that people agreed that my stamp is a 1693ii... but it is not as strong an offset than the one I have seen on the net.

It is true that we cannot see if there is an offset on your picture. A scan would be better in this case than a picture from a camera.

That old 12ft satelite dish got just about anything world wide- some things just wern't meant to be videotaped and aired. Generally the volume was blank so other than helga and olga being main characters its all a blur--lol
