Hektor: Here's a small hint for you:
Most of your mint stamps bent upward in he middle in your photos. When gum dries, it shrinks a little.
This alone tells us all your mint stamps are gummed on the gum side as they should be.

This does not yet rule out gumming on both sides.
I do not know what tagging methods were used on your stamps. But a slight shimmer on the front could stem from the tagging substance.

Thet are all mint, no sign of gum. On reverse, all having sign of gum on front which you hass been. Mention and I tried to show you on my bad pics.
Some of them are franked with random cancellation, looks like stamps. Coming from one block just sepperated, I can even put some of them like a puzzle.
Maybe they on Gummed side, and just been franked to not be use in future?
I don't know just asking, as I have some other babags with different stamps,

Are you asking why there is no gum on used stamps? Because someone soaked them off a document / envelope and the gum went bye-bye.

If you are asking why some stamps have been used, but you can't see a cancellation on them? That is because that sometimes happens. Also, some people like to soak stamps just to get some grime off the back, and the gum then went bye-bye.

Now, back to your starting question of why some items appear to be printed on the gum side. We are still waiting for you to show us a good scan or picture of one of them. Everything shown so far is very much standard for stamps and, I'm sorry to say, that you do not have anything remotely like a stamp printed on the gum side.
