1932 – 10f on 2a with “double 1” ??

111 varietyAnother posting on eBay and another amazing error, errors could be as small as a mysterious dot appearing from somewhere or in this case a number.

This is supposed to be a variety of the S.G. 111 King Faisal surcharged stamp. It claims to have an extra number 1 between the 1 and 0 in the number 10 as you see on the right in the picture. This is unlisted in the catalogues and quiet frankly its a awful attempt.

The extra 1 which actually if you look closely doesn't look anything like the original '1' next to it, its ink is different and all signs suggest that this extra number was added after the stamp was posted and used, in other words forged, but i won't add it to the forgery collection yet.
