Hi James. Not but a few days ago someone posted several of these and scans of fakes were shown. Have you tried searching here?

The Scott catalogue photos of the overprint on this stamp are very small and poor. There are 6 types and none are a clear match.

James - thus is a complicated series. You really need a clear scan so that those who know it can advise.

Agmas - the general Scott catalogue isn't used much in Europe (although those collecting US doubtless use its US catalogue), so Scott numbers don't mean anything to most of us.

James

This is an extract from Gibbons's catalogue (not the current edition), which is not an easy book to scan!

Hi! This looks like SG no.48 type37d. Why? 1)bottom characters as shown in the cat.identical as those on the stamp. 2)Big A is of the narrow type. 3)s inverted. So the price went up!.....
