Hello All,

Hoped you could take a look at these stamps and give an opinion on their authenticity. I had one gentleman tell me they were wrong because of the gum and another said they looked absolutely fine. What's your take?

Respectfully,

BTW - All of these stamps are for sale.

Your scans are too small but the stamps look like fakes and those printed watermarks are known on the fakes.
