O22 Overprint Varieties [5 aur Official perf 12.75 with 1902 I GILDI overprint] NEVER HINGED Fine centered horizontal 6-block. Interesting example with slightly diagonal printing of the overprints, rising to the right on the right side. Also a nice illustration of the two sizes of "0" in the date. Top row: thick-thin, thick-thin, thin-thick. Bottom row: thick-thin, thick-thick, thin-thick. Fresh and attractive. |

O27 [10 aur Perf 14 x 13.5 Official with "I GILDI" overprint] NEVER HINGED, original gum, with Fine centering. AIEP member and preeminent I Gildi expert Ellis Glatt viewed a high resolution image of the stamp in January 2024 and commented that the overprint is genuine in his opinion. This stamp is accompanied by a Jay Smith color image certificate with a "lifetime guarantee" from Jay Smith (details of the guarantee are available upon request). This is a wonderfully fresh example of a stamp that is missing from virtually all collection. The scarcity of NH examples is clearly demonstrated by the Facit 2024 NH value of SEK 9000! |

O27b INVERTED OVERPRINT [10 aur perforation 14 x 13.5, INVERTED "I GILDI" overprint, Official] Mint, original gum, lightly hinged, with Fine centering. Wonderful color and very fresh. Accompanied by 1985 Lasse Nielsen color photo certificate (despite the age of the certificate this one is still perfectly reliable). This unassuming stamp is extremely difficult to find in nice quality, even with a normal overprint, and is missing from virtually all collections. |

O30a, Facit #TJ20v1 MISSING I in front of GILDI [1902 "I GILDI" black overprint on 50 aur Official, perforation 14 x 13.5] Used F-VF+ re-attached pair with normal stamp on right and Missing I variety on left. The two stamps clearly belong together (connected by the postmark) but due to the very fragile perforations of this issue, they had come apart and have been sensibly and carefully reattached. The variety stamp (on left) has extremely slight blunting of the left-side perforations (almost requires a 10x magnifier to see). Very neatly canceled, well away from the overprint variety. This variety is seldom offered and only rarely offered in Used condition. This is the most attractive Used example I have had in 42 years. |

Orlof 10 kr Overprint on Scott #O36 (Facit #TJ38) [Official 16 aur Two Kings] NEVER HINGED with VF centering. An outstanding example with strong color, crisp printing impression, great centering, and excellent perforations. As of 12/2023, this is only the third example I have had in 50 years; this example has equal to or better centering than the others. This scarcity of this stamp is greatly under-appreciated. |
