A new found error!




Quote:
The two stamps issued as part of the 2015 floral series are based on Koss' paintings of a purple ice and blue pansy. The stamps were issued in a miniature sheet, and four sheets have been found where the perforations cut right through the design.


More here ... although only time will tell if the title of the news article is accurate suggesting that the find wins the collector the "postal lottery":

discovered with a significant printing flaw.


Looks like the newspaper has already got the information wrong, being perforated through the stamps is not a printing flaw. I agree with Glenn, EFO!

Favourite hobby in Australia - and in philately - is splitting hares.

Neat!

I like misperfs, I like 'em.

Anything used at all?
