44d, Facit #40b, AFA #25C [8 øre Perf 12.75, WATERMARK NEW CROWN, Print 121 (1902)]. Brilliant right margin NEVER HINGED 4-block from positions A29-30/39-40. Fine/F-VF centering. Appears to have been last sold in 1993 in a Christies auction where it was described as being from "the unique quarter sheet discovered by F.T.N. Caröe". Accompanied by Lasse Nielsen certificate stating "very fine item". An extremely scarce stamp as a single in Mint hinged condition and RARE as either a block or a single in NH condition. Value as singles: Facit 2007 SEK 36,000 = $5000. AFA 2007 DKK 34,500 = $5700. This block certainly has a break-up value of more than my price. This block is a showpiece with excellent investment potential as the value is supported by the four stamps which are constantly sought after by every serious collector of Danish stamps. |
