RC20, complete strip of four, with the bottom stamp being a double transfer. This is one of the most dramatic 20th century double transfers, with doubling throughout the entire design: lettering, scrollwork, portrait, frame, and ornaments.

Below the strip, there is a high-resolution image of a normal stamp at left next to the double transfer at right. You'll want to double-click the image to view it at full size.

The DT stamp is a bit ragged at left, but still, neat to obtain as part of a complete strip.

The bottom stamp is always the double transfer position, and it shows up on all the various overprints. However to my knowledge there is no pattern to the numbers; I have 8912 and 12400 as double transfers on the future delivery. This is a "twisted transfer" type of DT. A close look at the bottom left corner will show the twist just as the numbers and letters at the top left in particular do. I did see this, but having 2 singles I only put in a low bid.

Yeah, this one wasn't a steal by any means, but it was one I didn't have, and I like that it is part of the complete strip.

I actually helped you out; the seller had it mislisted as a much more expensive stock transfer stamp so I sent him a correction. Just in case I could get it cheap. :-)
