Este maperial que compraste ¿te vino así o vos preparaste las hojas que mostrás?
A quien preguntaba por la posición de las filigranas, supongo que el dibujo es tal como se ven del lado de la viñeta, es decir, de frente. Si bien se observa mejor del lado de la goma, a la hora de clasificarla o de dibujar la posición se debe hacer considerando la vista del frente de la estampilla.

you always judge the watermark and describe it from the back of the stamp! At least philatelists ought to do so! People checking whether a security paper is real watch the watermark from the front!
But how do you know whether the printers [Casa de Moneda] did use the right side of the paper to print on???? They are supposed to print the felt side of the paper [the side that was in touch with the dandy-roll that produced the watermark] but rarely did they in fact use the felt side for printing!
That is also the misunderstanding about filigrana traspuesta! It is usually the papel traspuesto we are dealing with, the paper of which the felt side got gummed or the wire side got coated!
In Argentina, "filigrana traspuesta" only implies that the back side of the stamp displays RA instead of AЯ and nothing more, it reveals nothing about whether the felt side had been used for printing or not!
