AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Interesting set of 7 stamps from the Italian Republic (period 2003-2006), characterized by the presence of important varieties and manufacturing defects that make the lot very appealing to specialists and collectors.

The lot is composed as follows:

- Cisitalia 202 (Europalia 2003): Value €0.52 showing a conspicuous shift of the perforation and cutting, with part of the adjacent stamp’s design visible, accompanied by the value originally issued for sale.

- Turin 2006 (Mascot Snow and Gliz): Specimen with perforation strongly shifted to the left, €0.60.

- Accademia dei Lincei (2003): Specimen of €0.41 misaligned with an intact sheet edge bearing the value of the line (€20.50), in addition to a slight offset on the back.
