C17 forgery-prelure paper
The forgery does not show the deep indentation between trees 2 and 3 on the left. I have 3 prelure paper stamps all appearing as the described
forgeries as above.
Is the prelure issue forged? Was it ever issued genuine? Due to the paper might the lack of indentation between trees 2 and 3 be secondary to the
prelure paper?

C 17 forgery-additional information
Thank you for the further information. I have the Ceresa book. The second vertical forgery is described as you noted as being on translucent paper
and 0.06 mm. Additionally the bottom printing has a "shadow" or double printing effect. I have this stamp.
The assumed forgery I am questioning looks like the First Vertical forgery with no details on the background tree silhouettes. However it is on
prelure paper with a thickness of 0.058 mm. Any help here?
