Product Description
Machin 1st class dark red forgery - reversed textDuring the last few years more and more 1st class forgeries have been produced in booklet and sheet form. Whilst most of these will easily fool the public most will not fool the experienced Machin collector.
This one appeared in late 2020 and was sold online at below face but only in 'sheets' of 12.
The most remarkable thing about these is that alternative lines of the security printing are reversed or mirrored!
There is no year code (which doesn't of course exist the red stamps), and that detail doesn't show under the fake phosphor bands. The elliptical perforation has straight sides, rather than curved.
Obviously we cannot sell them at below face but for all sales a donation will be made to charity, by arrangement with our supplier.
For this stamp we can offer only singles due to limited numbers.
(We don't have any used copies, and of course it would be illegal to use them.)
