 
#Y1 FAKE
ERRORS
Very clear fake
errors! Both stamps with identical second impressions. The "C" of "CORREOS"
deformed and the letters of "CORREOS / FILIPINAS" do not resemble the original
genuine impression as they are either much thinner or thicker, higher
or lower and narrower or wider than the genuine letters.
The stamp on
the right with heavier double impression and at the center, in particular
at the flanks of the triangle the which appear as having been pressed again
to create a third impression.
#Y2 FAKE
ERROR
This one is impossible
to happen in the printing process of the stamp. Clearly the top, a section
of the middle and bottom with double impression. The area under the triangle
base is single impression only. How could this happen when the press plate
strike the paper evenly. The shift of the second impression is quite wide
as show on "CORREOS / FILIPINAS." Remarkably the text "2 CENTS / K" and
the bottom part of the circle does not have any double strike. This only
happens if the two press plates was used to produce the stamp.
Perhaps the
forger is not aware that this stamp was printed using a single stone. |
