Is this fantasy original or forged?
This is the middle value (22 pouls) of the set and from the scan would appear to be an original. The postmark also appears authentic as per the originals. There are modern forgeries of all three values (some of them quite scarce) dating from the 1960's but they are easily distinguished by the clean printing and the shape of the flower design. [David M. Stirling]
