Have a look at the new Unesco site stamp. I observe that the cancellation leaves an impression of the micro tag printing, just below the stamp image (look at numbers 41251). I have seen this on more than 1. Does anyone remember seeing similar impressions on other stamps? Could be normal?

It's probably the TAG witch it's the logo of UNESCO and World Heritage Sites at the top and bottom of the stamps. Just check with your UV Lamp.

Yes it is Jacklac. What I found strange/unusual is that the cancellation ink seem to respond differently, depending on the "tag". Has this been observed on other Canadian stamps?
