1882-92 Numeral Issue 32c Forgeries

Stamps #1 and #2 are genuine stamps. Stamps #3 and #4 are very close to the genuine stamps. In fact, at first examination, I thought they might be from a very worn plate. But if you look at the closeup images from the mapped areas below, there are some differences. Pay close attention to the "B" in Liberia on the plow and the plow handles. If you have a different opinion, please let me know. Stamps #5 and #6 are obvious forgeries. Thanks to Manfred Beier for providing images of these last two forgeries.
