Unfortunately, the site is in German with nowhere to pick up an English translation (as far as I could see anyway). They seem to be offering items for sale on this site but unfortunately, I do not know the procedure on how to make a purchase. Could somebody enlighten me on how to do this? Thanks, Paul Catling Hello:

Depending on the country you live in there may be different practises (and costs) for this; contacting your nations local philatelic association/society and asking for advice on expertizing would be IMO a good start. Hope this helps! -keijo- Hi Dennis,

I have a Austria newspaper stamp and I believe it to be a p4 (6kr) scarlet type 2 also its imperf-orated, the stamp is on a brownish paper instead of a whitish color. Will this help determine if it is a reprint or an original. However there is little information when it comes to this stamp I’m not for sure if it’s a reprint or if the color is scarlet its tough to tell. If you have any info or photos that might help me determine what I have. It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time, Dennis Hello
