Not sure what a misplaced re-entry is actually.
Do you mean a retouched die, where someone goes over the engraving again by hand to fix little worn bits here and there?
A re-entry itself is a rolling over again by the original die over the plate that slips and shifts a bit.
The 1 looks something like that , but perhaps with the extra dots showing on the Queen's head also, some of these might be ink splatter or flying inked debris?
Maybe the 1 is having some acid problems or something originally?
Nice to see a printer's alignment dot lower left but in the actual design below the 1 there. I don't think this position has been shown before.
Oh, and the edge of the pane or plate too. |

I think what we see in CENTS could be pulled ink, doesn't look like a double transfer. What are the two dots in the lower right margin, here?  |

Quote: A re-entry itself is a rolling over again by the original die over the plate that slips and shifts a bit. From what I know, a re-entry is a re-engraving of the plate to recycle it, that left over remain of the old one. For this purpose, it is constant, that why it is listed in catalogue and have a POSITION on plate asigned. My interpretation of it:  Do I m wrong? |

A couple of things to ponder:
1. The color makes it challenging. It might be helpful if you could post a similar enlarged scan of the lower right corner with some of the contrast/exposure parameters cranked-up to create more contrast or even a significant change of color? Particularly useful too if the resolution can be increased, as it appears fuzzy on my screen.
2. re: double transfer, reentry, etc. While it may indeed be ink-pull, there do appear to be streaks/bits of extra ink within the blank areas of the C, E, T, and 1. If they have a regular relation to the design, it could be a case where the transfer roll was barely touched to the plate in the incorrect position and made a very few faint indentations of its high-points, but not enough for the plate maker to spend the time burnishing-out (or a hasty, incomplete burnishing of his error), then he correctly repositioned the transfer roll and entered the full design over the slightly flawed plate. Nothing as major as a reentry or reengraving at all, but this is much guesswork with the current images. |

Here we go:    Here the left side: The ''1 one'' make me remember the major re-entry, it pretty simmilar Here the Major one from re-entry.com   i also notice the same kind of line that we have in CENT in CANADA  We can also see a doubling on left side  to me, it really look like a re-entry. |
