Errors and curiosities found on stamps in this series

Because of the stamp layout, tête-bêche pairs occur in both orientations. Among sheets with perforation 12, varieties are known that are imperforate down the centre or at every second vertical stamp interval, as well as strips of ten and two-pair combinations.

Plate flaw: white spot below the first A in MAGYAR, at position 24 or 27 on the affected sheets.
