Lot description
Grade: VF
Reference: Miłczak 161

Interesting printing error with clear doubling of the intaglio layer on the obverse. This is well visible in the attached macro photos of selected sections.

The doubling, looking like a fuzzy, low-precision printing on the first evaluation of the issue, gives the impression that it may be a circulated forgery. Arguably, it was treated that way in the era as well, as there is a smudge on the obverse that looks like from a pen checking for originality.

The item is undeniably original, and the printing error is rare and impressive.
