Hi
Just noticed a possible error on one of these C5 air mail stamp...It does not seem to be in my 2012 Unitrade book...Look at the date, and one stamp has the "5" different than the other..The curl at the bottom of the "5" is not as long as the other.

wow - sharp eyes!
I didn't even know there was a date there. I can barely see that there is a date there with my magnifying glass, which I thought was pretty good.

I can't answer the question, but how do you get that yellow oval on there?

My single stamp has the normal "5".

Hopefully others will check their stamps and respond to determine if it's a constant variety or "one off".

The yellow oval can also be done using "Paint", which is a program on most Windows PCs.

I have quite a few of these. I will try to take a look later this evening.

As always, Wert - your attention to detail is amazing!
