France Scott 271 (Sg 509A) Fly Speck

I haven't seen Wert post something for a few hours, and I know his specialty is Canada, but going through my France duplicates, I found this one. All of my other 80+ copies have this little dot in the top curve of the 6.



But, for some reason, I have a copy with no dot whatsoever.






Really. No kidding. (Not April's Foot Day yet.) Check out your copies. Probably just wiped clean or covered by dust or something. I just thought it was interesting.

Hi Partime
Have just checked my few copies of this stamp - 4 have the 'dot in 6', 1 does not. So it seems the 'dot' is the normal stamp.
Best regards

Thanks for checking. I've seen various stages, but they are definitely the norm, not the exception.

Evening all,
I only have three but looks like two out of three for me.
