Does anyone know how to describe the flaw in the top right corner of this 1d red KGV? It looks a bit like some of the more well-known varieties, but not quite the same.

I found multiple examples of this type of "scratch" in an earlier thread with a different Australian stamp.

I don't think we ever figured out the cause.

It looks more like a guide line to me.

No, it's the blotches in the top righthand corner of the frame that I'm asking people to look at.

Similar flaws have been attributed to rust on the plates and I suspect this was the case here.

Happy Christmas everyone!
