C3 [1930 10 aur Triangle Airmail] Used VF+ left marginal 8-block with AKUREYRI cancellations (any non-Reykjavik cancel is quite scarce on this stamp). Spectacular appearance and extremely scarce in multiples. Facit 2007 value as singles is SEK 4800 = $670! However, the block is really much, much scarcer than the value of 8 singles!
O30a [1902-03 50 aur I GILDI] Used Superb example of the "missing first I" variety (Facit #TJ20v1). Wonderful example in top quality. Unpriced as Used in Scott, and though priced in other catalogs, both Mint and Used examples are very seldom offered. The normal stamp is very scarce with nice centering and the variety even more so. Outstanding!
