10k Could The Double Headed Eagl Be Inverted In Ground Area (Ghost)? You Have To Look Carefuly

Btw, is the A letter ok in your opinion?

IMO (In My Opinion), the A looks to have a very minor inking problem and would not increase nor decrease the value of the stamp. I do see a much more pronounced ink problem in the thick blue line to the bottom left of KON. I do not know if that is significant enough to affect the value of the stamp or not. Both inking problems which occure during a transfer of ink to the paper are fairly common on early stamps.Maybe you already have heard or read the philatelic term EFO (error, freak, oddity) used in english. Generally, unless I am mistaken, an error can increase a stamp value or at least make it more collectible. A freak or oddity is less likely to increase the value.

As for the inverted double headed eagle which I assume is the cancel, it is not well defined but never the less does not appear to mo to be inverted.

Hi Quigngt,

Thank you a lot, and please have a look at the area between the bottom of the stamp (under 10 KOP.) and the horns (I see there a ghost of the eagle with arrows, horns etc but upside down... please have a closer look to see it) also the centered eagle has got some ghost lines around in the center around the eagle itself).

No ghost is present. The canceling device was slightly over inked with low quality ink resulting in anomalous deposits of extra ink on the stamp.

Robi13, I am not sure exactly what you mean by "ghost" and "ghost lines". However, I am thinking that "ghost" and "ghost lines" refers to what we call "cancel".
Yes, I see the eagle cancel (ghost) that is inverted (upside down) and also that which is in the center around the eagle itself. If I am correct that ghost refers to the cancel , then I can say that inverted cancels are quite common and generally do not add any value to a stamp and may in fact lower the value when the cancel is not clear due to too much ink on the cancel device. An upside down cancel occurs when a postal employee holds the cancel device or envelope upside down when applying the cancel. It can also occur if the stamp itself was attached upside down to the envelope.
