-Matrix numbers, side B: the last "1" etched in the sequence [7070B 𝙸] is a roman numeral but I guess it's a "1" since the same number on side A is a "2" (in brackets).
-Matrix Number are identical has release The Beatles - Yellow Submarine event in "mistakes" in the stamped A (C 0 62 0 4002 A 21) or 2 (A 21 in the same sequence) of side A, where the lignes forming the A are uneven and the 2 has a little cedilla-like at the bottom end of the number. Thought this information was helpful since the other release is French and it is noted that the matrices are German.
-Image on front cover is misaligned right and up. It can be seen on left side (lower 1/3) where the green and red ribbons forming the hill are not touching the edge of the cover and at the bottom right where the 2 Blue Meanies are not touching the edge of the cover (about 1/4 inch).
-Image on back cover is higher up by about 3/4 inch and the ligne above and below Derek's text are black and not red.
