Lot 348 Canada SC#O9-269F 10c Yellowish Olive Great Bear Lake, 1946-1951 Peace Issue, A VF Used Single With Faked 4-Hole OHMS Perfin, Mimicing The Original Die, From Position 4, Not Documented As Existing Of This Stamp

A VF used single of the 10c yellowish olive Great Bear Lake from the 1946-1951 Peace Issue with faked 4-hole OHMS perfin, mimicing the original die, from position 4, not documented as existing of this stamp. I believe this perfin to be forged, because the holes are not cleanly punched, and they aren't the right shape. An interesting reference item and essential for a specialist colecting this issue to have, in order to not be led astray by fakes.
