More variations on the french star cancels:
étoile chiffrée 7 in pair |
For this cancel type, we do not find damaged or deformed numbers, but the variations are within the 7 itself.
There are 3 known versions of the 7.
The 7 can be 6.5 mm high, 5.5 mm or even 5 mm.
normal 7 - 6.5 mm |
Smaller version of 5.5 mm:
average 7 - 7 moyenne - 5.5 mm |
And the smallest version is only 5 mm high:
small 7 - 7 petite - 5 mm |
For the 6 and the 9 star cancels, the variations are there to make the difference between both numbers.
