Hello
Please help me with the "2 Millionen" overprint color of the Mi # 310A stamp.
In the specialized Michel edition 2011 the color of the overprint is "schwar'grun", while my stamp (like all my other Mi # 310A stamps) is "schwarz"
Is it a catalog mistake?
Thank you,
George

Hello Georg,
this is noticed in Michel online: 310 A 2 million on 300 M black-yellow-green (tones), overprint black-green (270) at € 0.20 € 0.50 € 2.80 I don't know what this 270 means, maybe a color determination ?! i imagine it is very difficult to see small color differences. I wish you good luck!!!
collector greetings, Gesi

Hallo Gesi,

damit ist die Ur-Marke Mi. 270 angegeben.

Michel means the original stamp Mi. 270 (without overprint).

Herzliche Sammlergrüße
Gerhard

Danke Gerhard,

es waren in dem Satz verschiedene Nr. angegeben weshalb ich an die Farbnr. dachte.

Danke Dir

Guts Nächtle liebe Forengemeinde

hallo gesi and Gerhard

2020 Michel online has the same color of the overprint as in specialized Michel 2011.
And yet," 2millionen" overprint is black and not green-black. The difference is visible to the eye and under the minimicroscope.
Please help me by checking the color of the "2 millionen" overprint on your Mi # 310A stamps.
In the catalog I did not find registered varieties of overprint color.

Hello Georg,
i am not collecting Deutsches Reich, so I cant check mine, I have non.
Best collector greetings

Dear @george61,

I am also not a specialist for the German Empire.
But I can agree with you, even with my copy of the Mi.310A, the color of the letterpress print is undoubtedly black.



Please contact the Michel editorial team to clarify this question:

and inform us about a possible result here.

Warm collector's greetings

Hello Gerhard
Thank you for the answer. You are the first to firmly confirm my observation (not knowing the German language I turned to French or English forums where I rarely receive valuable answers for German stamps)
Greetings
George
