- 5 small digits Euro-Varieties |
5 small digits ATMs coming
from franking balances type EPELSA ET-RL/T appear from a few weeks
ago. In this ATMs the separation between the digits corresponding
to the number of balance and the first asterisk of the face value
is smaller, as we can appreciate in the images :

At the moment we can't assure if this
balances are from a new generation of EPELSA balances (the numbers
of balance that are known with this variety are similar -0897, 0962,
0970, 0972, ... - and the ATMs has been issued in May
of this year) or it is the beginning of a general operation of internal
reconfiguration of the balances to avoid the printing outside the adhesive,
as it arrive now in some occasions.
With more detail, we can see the
differences in the distances :

We consider that the study of these
varieties corresponds to an advanced collecting level and cannot be
considered as a new printing variety.
