Eight Thousand Marks on 30 Pfennigs. My very old Michel lists this as watermarked lozenges or network. I have one watermarked quatrefoils. Is this a know variety?
The stamp was only printed on paper watermarked with lozanges or network. It was not printed with the quatrefoils watermark. Your stamp most likely is the network watermark. They look somewhat similar.
The quatrefoil watermark, except for two postage stamps, was used on revenue stamps.
Hello HockeyNut
What is the watermark for the german revenue stamps:vierpass or kreuz und ringe?
I checked the watermark on an official stamp in Wurttemberg.
It looks clear. I hope BWSchultz stamp looks the same. It would be great.
Michelnr 85 II a : Watermarks -> Diamants or Cross with Rings
Michelnr 96 II a : Watermarks -> Diamonds or Rings
Michelnr 151 and 152 : Watermarks -> Diamonds or Vierpass(=Kreuzblüten)
I only have included the corresponding pictures of the stamps with DIAMONDS
the ones with the other watermarks I do not have in my collection.
And what the Michel mentioned : "Es handelt wahrscheinlich um Versuchsdrucke oder Probedrucke" which means "It is likely to be a trial print of these stamps"
