An example of a fake grill (in this case on #111)
As you will see there are no points down or up
It is simple a series of impressed points.
During the early 90's there were many of these
produced by a, since banned, ebay dealer.
Recently these have been produced in Germany
and sold through ebay dealers based in both
the Netherlands and Germany. So be extra
careful when purchasing grills from these
countries. Insist on a large scan of the
reverse of the stamp. |
