This is Wiegand #4 (three-line admonition on back panel).

Below is a close-up of the indicum clearly showing the missing propeller, which was listed in the old Kessler catalogues. However, it is not in the Wiegand catalogue.
 

For comparison, here is the normal indicium 

There are other differences as well. Steve Levine has published a good start for further investigations on his website.

Burma
Double Printing of the Indicium

The aerogramme (Wiegand no. 7) was sent from RANGOON (cds 7 FEB 67) to Tucson, U.S. Even if the aerogramme went through the postal network it is philatelic to some extent. The addressee, Walter R. Guthrie, was a well known aerogramme collector and loads of aerogrammes without any message on the writing panel exist adressed to him.

This aerogramme shows a double printing of the red indicium, see detail below.
