Forgeries

15c Surcharge Forgeries

Type B3

 

Genuine Handstamp Type B3
 

 

Characteristics:

An obvious forgery with many aspects in error, notably “15” is too small,

the lettering “HABILITADO” and “CORREOS” has fine lettering, too short in length and offset from the left and top margins respectively.

 The vertical lines of the internal frame appear to be missing as does “PARA”.
