Item #	Quality & Description	US$	Used US$
231371	18, Facit #13Sf [1875 5 penni perf 11] Brilliant Brownish Orange 4-block with 14 April 1880 Helsingfors cancels. Centering within the block ranges from F-VF to Superb. This printing is one of the scarcer colors (Facit SEK 350 = $55 per stamp). Used blocks are very scarce; Facit indicates values from SEK 3000 = $450 for the most common colors, while Norma indicates a multiplier of 20x the singles price which is approximately 700 Euro = $980! A handsome and scarce block!	675.00	---

232092	22 [1875 25 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11] Bright (Dark) Carmine. Used F-VF with neat, light 1882 cancel. Though this color does not have a higher catalog value, it is much harder to find nice examples -- and it is the prettiest of the colors.	---	20.00
