How was it produced? Through research I've found claims that the varnish was applied to the front of the paper. Most examples show best from the back, but on this example, it is clearly on the front. I've never seen one before with this appearance however. Look closely and it appears to be cancelled too. A fake quadrille print perhaps? Has anybody seen one like this?
Suggestion: Before printing, the paper was covered with a hatch of oily varnish.
Going by the colour of your stamp, it has been tampered with The colour has leached, resulting in the void of the varnish hatch becoming more apparent.
