In my experience, seals are stamped on the front side of a document.
On real COLBs that have real Seals, it's stamped on the reverse side along with the date stamp and signature stamp.
Lucy, I've been working all day on wrapping up Part Two, but I can tell you, and everyone, right now, that the seal impressions on the FactCheck photos are totally bogus. They're not even close.
I've been examining the impressions on photos #2 and #5, and i can't believe that I did not spot the anomalies before -- they are as big as barns, or in the case of the Factcheck photo #2, flat as a pancake.
I don't want to spill the beans yet, given that it will raise all sorts of questions, which are all answered in Part Two.
But, for those who cannot wait, there are a lot of embossed letters that look nothing like letters, period, let alone the letters on the real Seal.
Also, look at STATE of HAWAII, and tell me if you see the "of" -- you won't because it is not there. You'll see a hyphen.
Here's the real 2007 Seal:
Now, here's Factcheck's bogus Seal:
See? not only is the "of" missing, but the "M," "E," and "N" in DEPARTMENT are also missing parts.
And, the Caduseus is all messed up and looks quite different from the real one.
A lot more to come...it will finished by tomorrow morning.
