As my father would quote, "a fool with his money". I have to say I gear up for the challenge, and become frustrated within minutes. But I keep going back to them. Australian Watermarks. Now what have I done. Hard enough to figure out the watermarks, for me, on regular issues let's throw some "OS" perfins to the mix.
Picked this up a couple of weeks ago, and it just arrived. If I go silent for a while, I will need new meds.

Your lot is easy peasy, if you get stuck, just post. Send me your email, and I'll post an OS perfin catalogue. (free) Watermarks? easy peasy   |

"Heads up" Roy Collectors are warned that scarce OS punctures and varieties , double perf OS etc, are skilfully faked to the present day, and have been for a number of years. Such Items are difficult to expertise. Forged Opts are also known some clumsy, some dangerous 1930's OS punctures set (Genuine) F/VF M/MLH 2017 SG =£630 ACSC Catalogue=$1020 (6d Kangaroo shown = both watermarks)
