What I collect: I collect world wide up to 1965 with several specialty albums added due to volume of material I have acquired. At this point I am focused on Canada and British America. I am always on the lookout for stamps and covers with postmarks from communities in Queens County, Nova Scotia. I do list various goods including stamps occasionally on eBay as hdm50

I came across this heart stopper several years ago in a junk box. This stamp with an inverted centre is a very rare if genuine. This forgery is about as bad as they get with give away photocopy dots. They did get the perforation correct. I kept it as a conversation piece and is in my album clearly marked as a forgery.  |

Hi Hugh Thanks for sharing I am a big collector (classics) of French Colonies, incl Mauritanie and the C11....but how far can you go to create the 11a - never seen one of those René |
