5a, Facit #5a First Printing: Emerald Green and Violet (Purple) on Thin Paper [1873 1 cent Bicolor, Perf 14 x 13.5, Normal Frame] Mint, with full original gum (scarce), lightly hinged (scarce), and Fine centering and with perfect perforations (scarce). Brilliant true colors, with the characteristic "checkerboard" pattern in the violet (under magnification) of this printing -- that make this an excellent example for a color comparison set. Scott Standard Catalogue lists only four colors/papers for this stamp though there are nine printings, thus nine colors/papers; Scott #5a comes the closest (because it is the listing for thin paper). Though the centering is not perfect, this is an unusually nice example of this stamp.

Scott #6a variety, Facit #6b, AFA #6 Print 2, the Thick Frame printing [1873 3c Rose and Light Blue, Thin Paper, Normal Thick Frame (1876)] Mint with Fine centering. Old-time small paper hinge remnant, but has incredible freshness with brilliant color, perfect perforations, and fresh gum. Such nice examples of this stamp are quite hard to find because the very thin paper was easily damaged. An excellent example.

Scott #6a variety, Facit #6b, AFA #6 Print 2, the THICK FRAME printing [1873 3c Rose and Light Blue, Thin Paper, Normal Thick Frame (1876)] Used with VF centering and light, partial CHRISTIANSTED cancellation. Much better centering than usual! Because of the extremely thin paper used for this printing, it is very hard to find examples such as this without defects. An excellent example of the SCARCEST PRINTING of the 3-cent Bicolors.

6e, Facit #6g, AFA #6y.8, Printing 7 [1873 (1890 Printing) 3 Cent Bicolor, Perf 14 x 13.5, Inverted Frame] NEVER HINGED with SUPERB CENTERING, with brilliant color and perfect perforations. An incredibly nice example, as fresh as the day it was printed. It is not often that one can obtain both NH and Superb on a stamp that is 133 years old! Facit 2024 value for NH with normal centering is SEK 900, but this example is in a much higher quality category.

9b [1878 7 cent Red Lilac and Orange, Print 2, Bicolor, INVERTED FRAME] Used with Fine centering, but with tiny defects and tiny repairs. Exceptionally strong color -- rarely seen with such nice color. The cancellation, which is sans-serif and shows "...SSTED", is Christianssted (misspelled with SS); the final digit of the year date is 0, probably 1890. This cancellation device was in use from 1888 onward and is quite scarce (Daka 1997 gives it a DKK 400 premium). Because the 7 cent Print 2 stamps did not have a lot of postal uses, they were available in the post offices for quite some period of time, thus an apparent 1890 use is not that unusual. Used examples of this inverted frame stamp are quite hard to find and when found are often defective. This would otherwise be $135. This example is offered at a very low price.

9b [1874 (1878 Print 2) 7 cent Red Lilac and Orange Bicolor, INVERTED FRAME] Used with Just-Fine centering and very light, neat, proper, partial (FREDERI)KSTED cancellation. There are some slightly blunted perforation tips, but the color is very strong and the cancellation is very light. This stamp was printed on extremely thin paper, thus undamaged examples -- especially of the inverted frame positions an most especially in USED condition -- are quite hard to find. A very nice looking example at a low price. Facit 2024 value is SEK 2700!

10 Grayish Blue and Blackish Brown, Print 6. Facit #10f. AFA #11b-6. [1876 (1888 Print 6) 10 cent Bicolor, Normal Frame, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint, without gum as usual, BLOCK OF FOUR with VF-XF centering. Due to seawater leakage damaging the entire Print 6 shipment from Denmark to DWI, Print 6 is rare with original gum (as noted by Facit and in the literature). The only with-gum examples are likely to have come from the Hagemann research holding from the postal archives. The catalog values of this printing are for without-gum examples. This block is from positions 25-26/35-36 (detailed plating information is included). AFA-listed PLATE VARIETY 11w (+DKK 150) in Position 35: Large white spot on lower left foot of R in ŘER. Facit 2024 value for singles is SEK 900 and for a normal-centered 4-block SEK 4000 (7/2023 about US$ 400). This example has centering that is tremendously better than usually seen on Print 6 -- and any blocks of Print 6 are scarce. Priced below break-up value!

10 Grayish Blue and Blackish Brown, Print 6. Facit #10f. AFA #11b-6. [1876 (1888 Print 6) 10 cent Bicolor, Normal Frame, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint with F-VF+ centering, but WITH GUM that is either regummed or disturbed original gum. It is perhaps possible that this is disturbed original gum or locally applied regumming for postal use, but either way, it is not undisturbed original gum. Due to seawater leakage damaging the entire Print 6 shipment from Denmark to DWI, Print 6 is rare with original gum (as noted by Facit and in the literature). The only fully-with-gum examples are likely to have come from the Hagemann research holding from the postal archives. The catalog values of this printing are for without-gum examples. Facit 2024 value for without-gum singles is SEK 900 (7/2023 about $90). This is an unusual case in that even if this example is philatelically regummed, the gum could be soaked off it without diminishing the catalog value. This example has centering that is much nicer than is usually seen on Print 6. Very attractive example.

13a, Facit #13b, AFA 13 Print 2 [1879 (1885 printing) 50 cent GRAY VIOLET, thick paper, Bicolor, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint, no gum, with XF-Superb centering. A beautiful example with perfect perforation and excellent, correct color -- just missing its gum. [Some suggest that intentionally removing the gum may help to preserve the stamp.] The Facit 2022 value is SEK 3000, but examples that look this nice are seldom seen! A very scarce stamp that is seldom offered, but when #13a is offered in the general marketplace, it is often misidentified and is really a faded example of #13. This example is a correct #13a!
