SPECIMEN - 

No certificates are accepted unseen from a printer. No matter how much checking has been done, there is always the chance of a typographical error creeping in and causing untold financial damage to the issuer. For this reason, prior to final printing a small quantity of "specimen" certificates will be produced by the printer for final verification. These items will usually be clearly marked "specimens" either by means of overprint or perforated cancellations holes. In some cases they can be further identified by a "0000" serial number.
