Dragon Overprint MS - Gold Foil Shifted

Gold foil stamping shift is a quite common feature for stamp or miniature sheet using this special effect of printing. I showed the RM5-dragon MS with gold foil stamping shift in an earlier post. You may click here to read the post. I show below here the gold foil stamping shift for RM5-dragon overprint MS. This shift in the RM5-dragon overprint MS is similar to that of the RM5-dragon MS


the left MS has gold foil stamping shifted left; the right MS has gold foil stamping shifted right


Below are the enlargements of a small part of the MS showing the shift.

Dragon MS - Gold Foil Shifted

The RM5-sragon MS has gold foil stamping. It seems that the gold foil stamping could shift from right to left. Here are two RM5-dragon MS samples that in my collection showing extreme right and extreme left shifts of the gold foil stamping. I wouldn't be surprised if someone might have recorded even more extreme shift of this gold foil stamping.
