Errors and curiosities found on stamps in this series

AUT perfin! See the description under the varieties.
The stamps can occur in many additional colour shades. Most of the inks are water-soluble, so some soaked examples may appear faded. 
A premium is justified for plate flaws.
Double impressions, machine set-offs and sheet set-offs may occur and can add substantial value.
On the 1-korona denomination, show-through or bleed-through of the print is common (the red ink is also visible on the reverse). This is a normal characteristic of this denomination and does not add value.
Marginal printing control marks or sheet-total numbers may also add value.

Forgeries:
Unused stamps are very rare, so regumming is known!
