On the left is a stamp I found in an accumulation of Indonesian stamps. It does not look like it should but then again, why create a forgery of a worthless stamp?

May be a scan of the reverse might help or not help!

Maybe it's a postal forgery?

It reminds me of the later Nigerian postal forgeries in terms of quality.

The perforation is wrong and the left side appears to be distorted.

The OP said " It does not look like it should but then again, why create a forgery of a worthless stamp?", practice!

@nigelc

I think you are correct, perhaps a reverse scan could add more information maybe!
