Some explanations for my foreign friends

Most of these stamps were primarliy produced in rolls (coils) for use in the post offices. This production method is the reason for the oft times poor perforation left and right on many issues. Every fifth stamp is numbered within the roll.

There are two types of numbers (not on all stamps):  

My MICHEL catalogue has an extra value for stamps with number at the back. But you never can buy just one stamp with nuber but only stripes with 5 stamps. I separate from this stripes 2 stamps for exchange so I have in my mint collection sets with 3 stamps as shown in the picture. There is too a higher catalogue value for stright pairs out of sheets.

Here a hint for separating used roll stamps with number: First of all look from the back of the envelope against the stamp and a light. If it seems you that you see a number do not separate this stamps in water bath because the number will be after process at the paper and not at the stamp. Put the water with a brush from the back to the envelope, wait about 10 minutes and then try to separate the stamp. The stamp should not be wet - only the envelope!

The letters which you can see in the column "Typ" in the table informs about perforation.

"A" is a normal stamp 4 sides perforated

"C" is a stamp from a booklet NOT perforated at the upper side

"D" is a stamp from a booklet NOT perforated at the lower side

Be careful if you exchange this stamps by catalogue value: Some profiteer cut the teeth!

Some specialists collect too se-tenant printings of this booklet pages, for example 10/50/80 C or 80/100 D and so on.

"sk" is a self-adhesive stamp from booklets (C/D) or rolls (A) with wide perforation

Don't worry about German self-adhesive stamps, most of them you can separate in water as normal stamps. EXCEPTION: The first German self-adhesive booklet stamps with front value 10, 60, 80 and 100 Pfennig, Michel number 1531-34 from 05/91. You better do not try to separate!

If there are any mistakes in the SCOTT numbers please give me a message, I did my best.

Is there anybody who can correct my terrible English --- please do, you help me and my visitors!                                   Thanks NIGEL!
