Belgian Stamp 2 Fr Albert I Show Me Your Copy

You might wonder what I have come up with, well to tell you the truth this is one of the high value in the Albert I series OBP 117 2 Fr violet or darkviolet.

You might not be aware of this but there is forgeries in the issue OBP 111 to 117 and also in the 5 Fr.OBP 122.

So please show me your 2 Fr. I show you what the stamp look like, it do not matter if the label is there or not. I Will tell you what to look for at the forgery in 24 hours from now.

Ok, it seems like this stamp issue is extremly rare :-), no one have a copy of it, well I promised you what to look for at the forgery.

Many collectors have this stamp and do not know there is a Dangerous forgery, just like the 1914 Merode and Little albert red Cross.
