Queensland 2 shilling brown flaws

There are no known varieties. Here are a number of flaws that I have found on this issue.
The top of the 'S' in Queensland is broken and the frame line is broken above it as well
The top of the first 'S' in Shillings is broken
The second 'S' in shillings has two dots
The 'A' of Queensland has a white spur on the right hand vertical A and the first 'I' of Shillings is misshapen
The 'S" in Queensland is mangled
The 'N' of Shillings is misshapen


There is a white line extending from the oval between "QU" of Queensland and the Queen's forehead.


A break in the oval above the "S" of Queensland and a line to the left of the "W" in Two


The four dots at the bottom of the right-hand frame have fused together

Flaw on the D of Queensland. It appears that some paper adhered to the plate. Seen on Ebay
