5/- Arms with double 'T' guide

Post by bathgate123456 »

I recently bought a stockbook filled with mint & used King George 5th & 6th stamps including several hundred used Arms High Values - an issue I'm very interested in. Studying the 5/- red Arms stamps, I have found a used copy with a double 'T' guide that I have not seen before or found listed.
The 'T' guides are located half way between the King's eye and ear in the hairline next to his brow. One is vertically above the other and they are both very small compared to the 'T' guides normally found.
Does anyone know if these are known and constant?
