This stamp looks like a possible re-entry. Opinions please.

I think that it is an example of ink smearing or ink drag. There are no clear signs of doubling.

I agree these are ink pulls or smears. Re-entries have clear and distinct doubling of lines. I have seen re-entries also have ink pulls. The Admiral issue is notorious for inking problems but there are notable re-entries and plate flaws also.

Nice images!

Is the cut up into the right lower side of the right upper crown a possible engraving slip?

It looks like a continuation of the ink pull from the left side of the crown or a possible foreign object on the press during printing.

That is a very nice Admiral pair woodstamp. The L/R border shows clearly.
