Actually, it's not the same stamp. The "stamp" is the part with the flowers, 60sen & "Malaysia". The other parts are not the stamp but the margins or selvedge.

The RM6 most probably is the TOTAL value of the row of stamps which would be 10. So 60sen x10 = RM6

Here is a sheet of the 3 fen stamp from Poland, 1919, where the totals are at the top instead of at the bottom

Those marginal values are totals for the vertical rows, as YeaPolska pointed out. They are printed for the benefit of the postal clerks. In these cases, stamps are meant to be sold in vertical increments (strips) or singles. This is why used horizontal pairs, or blocks (sheet stamps) carry a premium in some catalogs.

That explains something I have often wondered about.
South African bilingual pairs are normally collected as horizontal pairs with vertical pairs (except for coil stamps) worth considerably less.

I had assumed that it was just a matter of aesthetics, but your explanation seems more likely.

These flower stamp is taken from the block of ten copies for sure of thought when saw it at my first slight however have changed my thought later when discovered other stamps almost same likes these not margins on ebay by typing Malaysia flower stamp then search and found many identical of these flower stamps are having color margins without extra face value at bottom exactly likes these showing here possible these stamp is taken out from an unissued sheet of my other thought and hope you get what myself means but most of you are not expert in those foreign stamps for sure and cannot help me to be honest especially these it must be considered new discovery these is reason for these stamps become unique and world rarities for collection and might agree with your comment right for sure there

Thecollectible
Great idea, come into a community and ask for feedback for a unknown 'rarity' and then when the opinions do not agree with your opinion insult the members here.

Before insulting others, why not get it certified as a new unknown 'rarity'? Every time we get threads like this the poster ends up simply disappearing and never returns with ANY evidence that their claims are true. If you ever get a certification from a known expert which proves you are correct then post it, but you are not going to achieve creditability in this community unless you have certifications.

Your creditability is even more questionable than simply insulting people here, you apparently have incredible 'luck' with finding rare things…here are some of your posts in other online collectibles

To Thecollectible: Punctuation, please. A 5-line paragraph with no punctuation is impossible to read or comprehend. Thank you.

Ah, Bob, you must have made luxury bindings for a few copies of Ulysses over the years.

Indeed, I wonder if Thecollectible will apologize?
