Hi, what about the white stripe under the bust? Do the 2 look genuine?

The center (vignette) was printed separately and it is common for it not to be registered properly. Some issues, such as the early airmails and other bi-colors, can be collectible if the shift is great enough. For these portrait stamps however collectors tend to seek out copies with well placed vignettes.
