Certain flaws will help to identify this Type:
Seal #36: a blue dot above the "1" of "19"
Seals #76 and 77: a green dot above and right of the cross
Seal #88: the cross is broken at the top
Seal #95: the cross is square at the top.
Type 2: The dots in the red shading are arranged in horizontal rows.
Type 3: Same as Type 1, but without the heavy red line between the top two rows of bricks. The red line is not always obvious; if measured accurately, the different perforation gauge may be a more reliable test.
Certain flaws will help to identify this Type:
Seals #1, 10, 47 and 92: the cross is square at the bottom
Seal #44: a blue dash between the "H" and "Y" of "HEALTHY"
Seal #49: a dent in the cross at top left
Seal #51: the lower arm of the cross is broken or pointed at the left
