Bgh,
Left is 10 sen, blue Japan see here.

The right looks like the 25 sen also shown.

The punctures are referred to as a PERFIN used by companies to prevent theft, and indicates the company (yours unknown to me)
You can also see another route , an overprint by a company (see the 50 sen issue)

PS: Like your "Wallabies" shirt

To a stamp collector, every stamp that is missing, is valuable, in a desire sense.

Value wise, if marketing, is a few cents, but that is generally not what the hobby is about.

Consider the value of the inheritance, and what it may mean to your heritage,
otherwise, away you go.

The Perfin may be desired by specialists, but outside my knowledge.

Yes, I understand, there is stuff from all over the world. Just trying to catagorize them. Its nice to know that my grandfather and father both handled them. I do enjoy looking and sorting. Mini art forms also interesting are the cancel marks with dates.
Cheers

You are forgiven

I have abandoned Australian Rules football (Just too many adverts) and
fallen back to Rugby, my sport of choice in College.

Yes, the All Blacks are a magical team to watch, but the greatest thing is the emergence of the previous "unknowns" for want of a better word, Papua New Guinea, Tonga et al.

Loving my Rugby.
