Hello forum. Does anyone here have the double transfer of the C5 that they might show or know where I may view one at. I've searched other sites but didn't find one.
As always your time and knowledge is appreciated.


I actually had a bad scan that was showing shading in some areas. Sorry!!
But if you wanted to still show it I would welcome it.

Looking at the back of the stamp it looks like a crease but under the loupe it doesn't appear to be so. It looks more like a scratch in the gum or gum disturbance. Maybe an indention in the gum? It's not noticeable as I can't see it on the front and also it doesn't go from the edge of the stamp to the bottom. Would it be considered a scratch or crease? Are all creases noticeable on the front?
So, what does the forum think?
Your time and knowledge is appreciated
Thanks

I vote ironed out crease. Parts of the crease can be seen from the front. There also seems to be a small corner perf crease at bottom left.

Rhett and eyeonwall thank you.

Rhett I saw the perf right off the bat but it took me a bit to see the line from the crease on the front. Thank you! I do have a little problem with my eyes.

eyeonwall you eyes must be good as I still didn't see the tear at that perf. I gave the stamp back but down have a couple more that I'm looking at.
