And there are quite a few people hanging around...

#3171499 was added. The own image shows Mi1387/Yt 1231G, released on 01/07/2002
The adder saw a stamp in a catalog that looked similar (Mi 917/Yt 955AA from 1999, but was not), and incorrectly placed that information in the detail of his added item.

Work for a super administrator: notify the users and adjust the detail according to the originally added seal (own scan).
Or ... tell the adder that he does NOT have his SELF added seal? Which is absurd in my opinion.

Guaranteed, 3/4 of those hanging on it may have the stamp from 2002.
Anyone looking for a stamp in a catalog and not paying close attention (it is a detail) will stop as soon as one is found (the first = the oldest).
None of the 7 collectors and 9 suppliers may have looked further.
That is why it has not yet been added in its place (in 2002).

The detail is in the '5' of the newly printed value:



With the Ware Jacob (from 1999), the top line of the number 5 is straight:

It is easier to distinguish by the letter K. The top and bottom of the 1999 stamp form triangles, but not the 2002 stamp.

Boekenmagazijn thanks for your tip, I find it easier too.

Raoul62 the stamp has been adjusted, the explanatory image has been added. All four stamps are now in the same issue and a bilingual message has been sent (NL + EN).
Could you please check whether my changes are correct?

Fine.
Hopefully there is someone with a copy from 1999 who will also be kind enough to add that stamp to the catalogue.
There is a real chance that a subsequent user will recognize his/her 2002 stamp in another catalog in the year 1999. After which it could be added incorrectly.
Once the gap was filled in 1999, with the correct copy and the explanation (2nd image), the chance of mistakes becomes smaller.
Fingers crossed...
