Found this last night and can't help but notice the brown paper. Is there a number for it or did the paper just get colored over time or maybe from soaking?
In my 2007 English Michel, there is the following note:
The Hindenburg medallion stamps with wmk. 4 are on various papers; in addition to white, there is parchment-like paper with strong wmk., yellowish, etc. - soft, absorbent paper was favored (so-called "embossed").
I will check my later German Michels to see if there are any additional notes/listings after my meeting tonight.
Also tagging PostmasterGS so we can pick his bear brain...

From Michel:
The paper for MiNr. 512-528 can vary in thickness; the paper color varies between white and yellowish; additionally there is a parchment type paper with a strong watermark as well as soft absorbent paper, which favored the so called “engraving”.
