This stamp is known as the cherry blossom series from 1874.Your stamp is a forgery though.It has weak lines,poorly done volutes.The genuine stamp is much bolder in aspect. |

Thank you! Are these stamps genuine if I understand correctly? What's the number in Michel's catalog? I couldn't tell if it was 1872 or 1876? |

Your last stamps are from the 1875 printings (no syllabics); but they are also forgeries. |

Yeah, it's weird. And do real Japanese stamps exist before 1876 and where to buy them? |

In general, I will not buy Japan for the time being until 1876, until I learn to distinguish between fakes of old Japan)). As I get it. there 90-99 percent of counterfeit stamps))? From different places I bought, and not a single real)). These stamps cost at least 1-2 euros, what did I give for them))? |

Thank you! Where's the fake? Left or right? I have a stamp very similar to the option on the left.  |

You must translate otherwise you will be lost. The genuine is on the right. This site below is interesting and only by translating can be understood.The home page is the tiny blue character bottom right.* It compares genuine vs forgery... http://www.takahashistamp.com/note41.htm |
