130 [1922 5 aur surcharge on 16 aur Christian IX] NH VF/Superb lower left corner margin 12-block (sheet position 71-74/81-84/91-94) containing the only medallion plate flaw on this stamp, listed by Regeling (who wrote the handbook on Christian IX and Two Kings stamps): "Position 73 several dents in right side of medallion frame from mouth down to chin". (This is variety is known ONLY in position 73 -- not also 23 -- in the 3 aur to 50 aur regular postage issues.) Also contains one of the two frame plate varieties recorded by Regeling: Position 84 "white spot in upper right part of R of RD" -- this is also found in position 34 as would be expected for a 50-subject plate. Wonderfully fresh and contains many Superb, perfectly centered stamps. Priced at a little less than the break up value of the single stamps!

130 [1922 "5 aur." surcharge on 16 aur Christian IX] Used F-VF centered, with substantially complete (for the size of the postmark) REYĐAR(FJÖRĐUR) bridge cancellation, type B2c1 (Facit 2022 #40). Though year date not showing, very nice strike for this type of item -- and VERY UNUSUAL on one of the provisional surcharges. An ordinary example of this stamp with this centering would be $24, but "99%" of those are the usual Reykjavik or other larger-town cancellations. While the catalog value of the postmark is not high, it is surprisingly seldom seen.

132 [1921 "20 aur" Surcharge on 25 aur Christian IX] NH VF 8-block containing sheet positions 21-24 / 31-34. The handbook on this issue (Regeling) lists only four frame flaws on the underlying 25 aur stamp -- this block contains two of them! One of the varieties is "white spot in "h" of "Chr" in position 31 (and 81) and another is colored line to right of "N" of "ISLAND" in position 24 (and 74). This issue was printed by two impressions of a 50-subject plate, thus each variety usually appears twice in the sheet (though on this stamp, the other two recorded varieties each exist only in one position, 15 and 48). Medallion varieties of this stamp are only recorded in positions 7 and 73. The sheet positions of this block are also confirmed because it was taken out of a larger marginal block. Very bright and attractive; extremely fresh. Even ordinary nice NH singles are difficult to find. The break-up value as normal NH VF stamps is $272!

139, AFA #106x [1921 "10 aur." surcharge on 5 aur green King Christian X] Mint, very lightly hinged, with VF centering. AFA Specialized 2016 (most recent edition) lists this plate variety on the underlying stamp as #86x, but they forgot to list the plate variety with the overprint (I have notified the editors). The variety is from plate position 9, and also exists on some other stamps in the issue, consists of broken green background lines on either side of the portrait, roughly in line with the mouth, resulting in white areas. This variety is rarely offered and is quite difficult to find with nice centering.

143 [1930 "Kr. 10" surcharge on 5 kr Two Kings] Used with the Average centering that is typical for this stamp. The perforations just barely touch the frameline. Neat, partial (H)AFNARJF(ORDUR) postal cancellation; it is unusual to find this stamp canceled outside of Reykjavik. By comparison, the same stamp with F-VF centering would be $425! A key stamp, with a postal (not revenue) cancellation, that is missing from most Used Iceland collections.

145 [1925 10 aur Reykjavik scene] Used XF with XF strike of Danish "KŘBENHAVN / Omk 9" 18 February 1927cancellation. Danish cancellations on Icelandic stamps of this era are not uncommon (due to the large amount of letters mailed at sea aboard fishing boats that arrived in Denmark). However examples are scarce when they are so well struck that they show the entire cancellation, including the specific local branch that canceled the item, as this one does. An outstanding example!
