Default what do you guys make of this t206?

"Probably because sgc does not want to be the first associated with a bogus variation. But that is just a guess. The stamp is under the paper loss which suggests that the stamp was applied before the paper was layered to create the final thickness stock. So the stamp was applied to one layer of paper, then the final layers were applied. The cards were printed and then scrapbook removal reveals a hidden t206 back variation. And there is overlap between the stamp and the real back. Another situation which defies reason. Why people continue to insist that this card is legit is beyond me. "

If this was the case, and the stamp was an underprint...why would we see any part of the stamp besides where the paper is missing? For this theory to work, you'd have a stamp printed on the layer of paper underneath the surface. But we shouldn't be able to see the stamp that is in the area showing the Sweet Caporal logo?

I can't see how the stamp can be on both layers of the card, unless it was applied post-production.

This really doesn't seem that hard.
