In the National Archives, there is a proof print of the 2 1/2 guilder NVPH number 347 with a faint impression of another stamp. Can you tell me which stamp that is?

Come back,
After some digging with a magnifying glass and in the catalogue, I think it is a print of stamp no. 253 Willem I, 5 ct. The commemorative stamps from 1933.
You would think that it should be a stamp from around the issue date of 347 (1939), but the pattern depicted does not fit anywhere.
Good day Lia and Jos,
I would rather look at NVPH Netherlands no. 443.
Kind regards
Jos, that's great! Congratulations!
Jos, the Wilhelmina stamp wasn't issued until 1946, you know. It is just listed a bit earlier in the catalogue because it is actually a stamp from the Konijnenburg series of 1940.
