Ok so I cannot find this stamp in Scott's or Unitrade. It is midnight and entirely possible that I am just sleep deprived and somehow missing it somewhere in the catalogs, or maybe this is a forgery of some kind, but I cannot find the 1c orange-yellow Admiral coil with imperf sides and perf 12 horizontal.

Help!

Alright these must be forged with snipping sides of booklet stamps because I found two in the same collection (or I need sleep). Also have this one:

Hi, I am really a newby and I am not sure if we can post outside links here but on stampworld.com they both seem to be from 1922-1925. There is a serie where both are there.

HI CP,

I looked there and all I can see is the non-coil set unless I'm not clicking the correct links there?

Thanks, though!

If you click on the stamp, you can see the different variants.In this case, they don't show a picture but the different variants are listed. I think this is what you are looking for. Again... if not, real newbie here haha

Those 2 stamps are likely trimmed sheet stamps as they are not reported in current catalogues.
Horizontal perf 12 coils exist in 1c green (SC #131),2c red (#132) and green (#133) and 3c brown (#134).
Fakes known to exist especially of the 2c green, produced from trimmed sheet stamps (#107) and must be looked at carefully to differentiate from true # 133.

CP, oh I see what you mean. Sadly it isn't mobile friendly and I can't scroll down the variant list until I get on my laptop but I'll check that out. Thanks!

Gilles, thank you for the feedback as I was more concerned I have just forgotten how to use my Unitrade lol. This makes more sense and I suspect it's just some snipping tricks more than some ultra rare Admiral. Now I better go look at my 133's!

..With Gilles
I took your stamps and measured them..Likely a poor attempt at trying to create an error/new stamp.
