Willis, nobody is an expert without the physical piece of paper sitting in front of them. A scan of a stamp cannot nor ever will be expertised or certified by anybody. Anybody can post a scan of anything, and with modern software can create anything which can look very realisitic.willis8732 wrote:So... no one here is a expert?...... And I thought i would save myself a few quid ...closest experts to me are london,i have only been collecting about 3 weeks.All i understand of the stamps I have is they are pre 1960 (alot of google checking)To me they are just old pictures
And i thought or consider glen to be an expert as he has a few....

Willis - We also now know you bought a similar looking forged "Inverted Jenny" Mint for $US15 off an ebay German seller lagygirly 2 weeks back, (shown below) that you had not ever mentioned to us you bought until members here discovered the sale. My guess is the one above you also bought at the same time, from the same ebay seller lagygirly, as they look near identical. (Can someone please email this thread link to lagygirly - she might stop listing this stuff, if she knows it is being discussed, and she is not complying with ebay rules re marking fakes for sale.)

A USA expert has confirmed to Admin that the stamp you show above does NOT match any of the known 100 genuine Jenny's, therefore it is certainly a fake.
Fixed for truth:First of all i would like to explain to everyone that I am quite dumb when it comes to stamps, but i am learning off of all the expert replies I am getting, so I would like to thank those whom reply before they do.
I bought a bag full of stamps (about 4KG) from a antique dealer and I am trying to sort a collection out for my son so later on in life he will have a head start, and not be a pizza boy like myself.
