Forgeries of People's Post (Gansu) (人民邮政(甘)), North West Area Gansu, Forgery

Hsinyen

This issue is really strange, even the stamps have "low value" they were intensively forged.

In a close observing I can determine three types of forgeries:

1.)
The 20000 (green): The brackets “(“ and “)” does not have a crescent moon shape (both ends are thin, in the middle thick.

2.)
The 1000 (blue): different characters, slanting to each other.

3.)
The 200 (red): different characters, wrong, too thin brackets.

In my example here I overlay a genuine overprint (white) above forged overprint to make the differences visible.

Would like to hear comments, corrections and additional information from other collectors.

这个问题真的很奇怪，连“底价位”的邮票都能被大量伪造。

根据我的观察确定有以下三种伪造类型：

1）20000（绿色）：括号 “（” 和 “）” 不具有新月形状（即两端薄，中间厚）。

2）1000（蓝色）：不同的字符，相互倾斜。

3）200（红）：不同的字符，错，是括号太薄。

就以上例子, 我在伪造套印上叠加一个真正的套印（白）, 差异明显可见。

想听听大家的看法，还望不吝赐教。

@缪书峰  All good! Nice postally used.

Can anybody help me here. Is this a forgery or a genuine stamp?

Hmm ... nobody has an opinion?

Another question: What does the experts think about this stamp?
