No’s 104 & 105 (first edition)

Remark: there are probably more forgeries (in overprint) than originals, also for the second edition of no’s 104-5A. My collection was checked by Abbé Gudenkauf, and unfortunately almost all my stamps, especially the double and reversed overprint were considered to be forgeries. Maybe one day some expert can explain more about this series and its forgeries.

No’s 104-105

 No.105 shown here

No's 104A-105A (second edition), 104A shown here.

Curiosity:

Reversed overprint exist for both stamps, 104-105

 Here 105 & 105A, both forgeries.

 Double overprint, forgery.
