No this is not the 5 line recut.
In fact, there are no recut lines in the upper left triangle.
For it to be a 5-line recut, it would have to be a 25A and position 95L1L.

This stamp is a #25, not a 25A.

There is no such thing on a Type I or II perforated stamp. Even the 95L1L is an impossibility since Plate 1L was taken out of production some two years before the introduction of perforations.

Right. What I am saying is that there is only one possibility of a 5 line recut on a perforated stamp. It is position 52L25 and is a Type III stamp.

The color of your stamp might be claret and might be slightly changed by atmospheric pollutants.
