First Repair of Position 29

Position 29                          Position 30

The first repair appears to have been done with a tool such as a file or knife
Position 29 has pronounced "tails" on the E in NEZAVISNA and the D in DRZAVA
There is also a pronounced cut in the vertical part of the Z in NEZAVISNA, probably due to a slip of the tool used
This variety exists on all values of this issue
 

Paste-Up Repair in Position 19

Front                                                                    Back
               

When a sheet had damaged stamps, they were replaced prior to overprinting instead of destroying the whole sheet
In this case a new stamp was "pasted" into Position 19, but upsidedown!! resulting in an inverted overprint
