As you can see, the lighthouses on the stamps are very small.  I think that the designer put more importance to the context and the geography than the lighthouse itself.  That is why I believe that the margins of the sheets in this serie are very important.  One of the 10 stamps in the sheet is attached to a margin with a very close look of the lighthouse.  I put the number of the ideal position. Lets see how much extra value give to these positions the sellers of Delcampe and EBay.
