1949 Goethe stamp errors (Perforation Misplaced , OFFSET？？？).

    Hello,

    In 2014, I purchased these 2 Goethe stamp errors (Perforation Misplaced , OFFSET). It has been a few years, and I forgot who the seller is? .

    I have 1 question:

    This OFFSET, is it bogus or Faked Gum?

    Because, so far, I have not seen this OFFSET, it appeared in foreigners' works about Goethe:

    I want a correct and detailed answer, please give a knowledge link about this stamp (Perforation Misplaced , OFFSET)!

    Perforation Misplaced, this is the Genuine!

    Hello xiaolin

    Offset is a printing method. The correct term here is set-off ("Abklatsch") which means that, if two stamps are on top of each other and the ink is not yet quite dry, the backside of the upper one gets the imprint of the lower one. It is not an infrequent occurrence.

    Gruss,

    Hello xiaolin

    Hello, Jean Philippe

    The German expression "Abklatsch" is correct, for example, The German "freistempel" =meter,... And so on.


    Everyone's life, do some of their own love things, so that you can not waste life.

    I like traveling and collecting stamps.

    My wife and I travel abroad every year. We have been to Germany twice, a beautiful country.

    For stamp collecting:

    I buy stamps without considering whether they will appreciate or depreciate.

    German stamps, I collect a lot, mainly in World War II. I also collect information about world War II from countries around the world.

    However, I don't buy unreleased, error, precious, etc. Because I'm just editing a philately work!!! Like the British about world war ii: https://www.britishthematic.org.uk/kcfinder/uploa…-compressed.pdf

    I do not use traditional collecting methods, so I do not buy professional catalogs myself (for example, error on German stamps), I only have the 2008 edition of the Scott Stamp Catalog in the United States, and I have not bought updated ones.


    In addition：

    Reasons for Perforation Misplaced:

    1. Is the progress inconsistent in the process of conveying the stamp paper? ,

    2. The location of the Perforation machine is wrong?


    This Goethe Abklatsch, I wonder if it's a fake, or if it's a real one.

    If, I don't know if it's true or not, I put it in my philately work, it would make people laugh.
