2, AFA 1IIa, Plate I, Position 6 [4 rbs, second Thiele printing] Used VF+ with large margins all around. Remarkable example with half of a manuscript "X" cancellation. At one time, this was the left stamp of a pair that was canceled with a large, bold "X". Manuscript cancellations on the Fire R.B.S. stamps are very scarce -- DAKA lists them starting at DKK 1400, but a cancel of this appearance is quite rare. Accompanied by a Møller photo certificate.
