7¢ Bistre 2L10

A minor defective transfer of the LL corner with the vertical and bottom lines of the LNB almost missing at the corner. There is also some minor retouching with the bottom line of the LNB, the top line of the RNB and possibly parts of the bottom frame all retouched.

Leo's Notes

Minor defective transfer

  • The vertical and bottom lines of the LNB are almost missing at the corner where they meet, and the rest of the vertical line is very thin. The left and bottom frames are slightly thinner
    than normal at the corner where they meet.

Retouch (not in Marler).

  • The bottom line of the LNB is thick except at the LL corner.
  • The top of the RNB is very thick.
  • The bottom frame was likely retouched because it is solid and thick.

Guideline

  • Faint vertical guideline in the top margin and the top right part of the left crown.
  • Vertical guideline in the top of the right member, the diagonal member, and the middle of the left member of the N.
  • Vertical guideline in left inner oval opposite the C and leaf 4, into leaf 1.
  • Vertical guideline in the LNB at the right edge of the 7. A second faint guideline goes from the right side of the 7 into the bottom margin.

We use Statser to measure basic website usage without cookies. The system processes page views, clicks, form submissions without form contents, referrers, browser/device information, error pages, approximate visit duration, and pseudonymous visitor keys. Full IP addresses are not stored permanently by Statser; they are processed briefly on the server to create a pseudonymous visitor key, apply technical exclusions, and optionally resolve approximate GeoIP information. If GeoIP is enabled, the IP address is checked locally against a MaxMind GeoLite2 database to determine the approximate country or city. The visitor IP address is not sent to MaxMind. MaxMind is contacted only to download and update the GeoLite2 database. Detailed data is deleted after the configured detail retention period. For long-term trends, Statser also stores aggregated daily values without individual visitor profiles.
