For what reason facsmile impressions were made of these stamps, both serrated and imperforate.

Received a box tonight with all kinds of stamps from all over the world that contained these.

It concerns images of nos. 1-2-3-10-27 and 29 Netherlands.

There is also a facsimile on the back.

Alard.

I already found the answer at Filahome:

Facsimile for the stamp album

A facsimile used to be used to fill a space in a stamp album that would otherwise have remained empty; perhaps to fool yourself and fellow collectors. After all, the album page seemed completely filled. Even that expensive rare stamp seemed to be there!

The only question that remains is whether they are worth anything, after all, it is a forgery.
