Default Serbia query.

My reference books are a dog's breakfast.
I have to swap around to find the book that deals with that particular
country.
In this case SG Part 2 (1963)

"The arms on the dinar values (except number 186 [1dinar blue green])
are smaller than in the type 13 opt" (the arms shown on mine RHS)

Not sure about the "funny business", Serbian issues abound in paper
varieties and
perforation varieties.
The "king peter on the battlefield" issues had other values prepared, but it
is uncertain whether they were issued for
postal purposes, as on the evacuation of Nish, the stock was left behind,
and fell into the hands of the Austrians.
Beware of reprints.

The ovpt obliterations of King Alexander1 on the 1903 issues
differ on these two stamps.
Any explanation?
Is the LHS a forgery perhaps?

What does SG say? I know that there was a lot
of "funny business" later on with Serbian issues.
