Is this ink transfer or printing \ press error?

Your 5c Wilhelmina SG150 from 1891 Has probably been in a batch of stuff some collector has been soaking! It has been sitting too long on top of a soggy wet 2 1/2c numeral type issued back in 1876. So the wet mauve stamp has transferred some of its ink to the blue stamp.
It Certainly never came from the printer that way, they were issued 15 years apart
