Two Chahis Forgery
| In 1928 the existing revenue stamps were overprinted "Poste aerienne" in sheets of 100. The forgeries of the five lowest values i.e. 1ch, 2ch, 3ch, 5ch, & 10ch were made during the same period apparently to supply the packet makers in Europe. The identifying characteristics of these forgeries beside the fact that the overprints are quite crude and weak, the ornamental petals on each corner above the values are very weak and crooked. Also the shade of these forgeries vary from the originals. |
