Gooding #20F1 Lithographic counterfeit issued in dull deep green. The
lettering is irregular. The eye is not very well defined and appears to be
looking away. The left vertical stroke of spandrel in the top right corner
does not curve at the bottom.
Gooding #20F2 Rather course forgery issued in pale green. The 'E' of 'CORREOS'
is diagonal and leans towards the left. The spandrels are crude and do not
curl upwards as compared to some in the genuine stamp. Shading around the eye
is very heavy giving the appearance of a large tear drop. The vertical stroke
of 'L' in 'PLATA' is diagonal and leans left and has a short horizontal
stroke. The 'F' has very short horizontal lines. (Similar to Gooding
#20F3)
Gooding #20F3 Rather crude forgery issued in pale green. The
first ‘O’ of 'CORREOS' is broken at the top, appearing as a ‘U’. The circle
of pearls are not even, with two small circles in the south-west section
followed by larger cirles. Shading around the eye is very heavy giving the
appearance of a large tear drop. (Similar to Gooding #20F2)
