is what looks like a O70 State Department Official stamp.
Look like a find, but am I missing something here?
It has no gum and no cancellation as I can see, except
a few black perfs. It also has a hair like line going
from center frame to mid left perf. Let me know what you
think. Thanks.

Note the word 'facsimile' above the word state.

Wow, never even noticed it. Well that is why I ran it past the board.
One question, why make these?
Thanks Don, appreciated.

"One question, why make these?"
Space fillers like with newspaper stamps. Very limited quantities available to where most people will never own a genuine example.

I found two of them in my Revenues collection yesterday . . Interestingly the 5$ one appears to be canceled.
