fig 2 - maeda K series M2-10sen : 2 shades .   note the frame design.
corner shadow boxes are evident.
the Batz method was innovation in denmark to produce "bi-color" issue and also influenced the norge posthorn production ...  basic design elements frame and design were isolated on 1 plate; and value and text layered on a second plate ...   work saving method.
unknowingly,  maeda used similar approach with block/screen transfer ...  see fig 3 below  - merge lines on M3-osaka.    
what is signifigant also - this places the 10sen in bota group of imitations . the isjp 2002 CD only records
nijumaru types.
