Description

This is my call Although 1 stamp is greenish Blue and the other is Deep Blue no plate wear. With my knowledge I could not class the First stamp as SG2.There is no shade with no plate wear in greenish blue. You will find the experts class it as SG2. Its in my opinion a pretender.On two major accounts. All the genuine the printing although very similar shade as this stamp looks more like a richardson print from the front.This stamp does not.Although the stamp has an ivory effect on the back, the blue colouring is more by the inking rather than the chemical reaction with iron in the ink to form that special shade of blue as seen sometimes on GB 1d Red.The stamps are good condition. So CP numbers A2e no plate wear CP does not catalogue such a shade , but the other stamp as CP A2d2 est cat stamps $500.CP says shade more important than the ivory head on the back.But the genuine stamps have a finner paper than this stamp.I tend to disagree with that assumption.Yes if you get the stamp expertised it most likely come back as SG2.Take the stamps as you see fit
