That is nice to know! Are they particularly rare or simply counterfeited often? I can't seem to lock down much info other than they are frequently forged.

I agree,Hab, yours is genuine. For some reason, the stamps of Charkhari have been targeted frequently by producers of forgeries and imitations, although many of the original stamps are not of great value.

It's a shame that Tony's original images have been blurred by the Photobucket extortionists.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the replies. Cool to know mine is legit. I will not be selling it and am instead cleaning up and reorganizing grandpa's entire collection and passing it down to my children... Cheers!
