Nice to know. Also looks like Type I is a richer color and the background has thicker shading lines making it look darker. Can you confirm that?
Also, was it just this'd nomination or others?
Thanks.
The Catalog does not mention color variations. I think these are just darker and lighter shades of same color. Others from the set with two types are:
30 Pf, 40 PF, 75 Pf and the 80 Pf.
Here is the 80Pf stamp, this one does come in two shades and two types.
Another small difference is the cross at the top of the crown. Type I, not or hardly visible.
Type I
Type II
Found these four coil stamps in some kilo ware. There are two types, the first were coil stamps printed in December 1920 . The Type II, started to get printed earlier in August 1920. By Type I the middle is usually decentered, the bottom words "DEUTSCHES REICH" are always decentered and a little bigger than type II. Type two has everything centered. This is because Type I was printed with two plates and Type II was printed with one.
The Michel CV is €40 for a single stamp. The Cancel: (KONSTANZ * 1 b)is listed as possible false. I will have to get these proofed. There is a bit of ink from the cancel that goes through to the back, not to much to make it ugly. So I am of good hopes.
