Tasmanian Devils 01: 1/2 Lake Marion errors i - final

This is my last post on the 1/2 Lake Marion errors.
The fields with (LAKE M)ARION have that many flaws that they deserve special attention.
There are not less than 16 possible flaws in the two fields I5/I6.

Flaws 1.10 and 2.56 are similar, but larger in the second one.
In 1.44, the legs of the A are connected at the bottom.
For flaw 2.60 the bottom line of the frame is not straight, this flaw requires as well the marks, mentionned in the previous post.
All other flaws are small white spots in and around the letters or the surrounding lines.

So far all known flaws to start examining the Lake Marion stamp of Tasmania.
Several stamps have multiple flaws in different areas of the stamp.
To be sure of a stamp's position, sometimes the border frame of the watermark is required too.

Happy hunting ...
