Please check me on these stamps. I'm coming up with type 2 on the first and third stamp (Scott #7).

The middle stamp was badly damaged, repaired, and rebacked, and then an owner's mark added - a lot of trouble but what is it? I'm at a loss.

Thank you. I feel like it will be a long time before I trust myself on these.

rlsny, on the left and middle stamps the dark segment of the top frame line from the stamp below is clear evidence of a recut, hence #9 in both cases.

Thanks - I didn't consider those top frames from the stamps below. Good hint. Thanks.
