Details
Soloviev/Schmidt number: 4, 5 or 6 (see note below) The scratch on the stamp is caused by damage to the printing plate. According to Soloviev, this only occurs with the colors lia, graylia and red-lilac. Nevertheless, the characteristic scratch (through the K) is clearly visible on this violet stamp (image 2). The undamaged stamp was issued in 1878. It is not clear whether the plate was damaged in the same year or a year later. .

Soloviev/Schmidt nummer: 4, 5 of 6 (zie opmerking hieronder)
De kras op de zegel is ontstaan door schade aan de drukplaat. Volgens Soloviev komt dit alleen voor met de kleuren lia, grijslia en roodlila. Toch is op deze violette zegel de kenmerkende kras (door de K) duidelijk te zien (afbeelding 2).
De onbeschaidgde zegel is uitgegeven in 1878. Het is niet duidlelij of de plaat in hetzelfde jaar beschadigd is, of een jaar later. .
