Scott #11 [1877 (1878 Printing) 12 cent Bicolor, Red Lilac and Yellow Green, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint -- this has NEVER BEEN HINGED but has some of the typical light gum matting from how the stamps were stored at the post office in the DWI climate -- with VF-XF centering and "perfect" perforations. Wonderfully fresh with great color. A beautiful example in wonderful quality. The paper of this printing is so thin and so crisp that most examples have defects -- this example has NO defects! Very scarce in such nice quality! For normal quality, the Facit NH value is SEK 1200 and the Hinged value is SEK 550 -- this is MUCH nicer! ACTUAL item. |

Scott #11 [1877 (1878 Printing) 12 cent Bicolor, Red Lilac and Yellow Green, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint -- this has NEVER BEEN HINGED but has some of the typical light gum matting from how the stamps were stored at the post office in the DWI climate -- with SUPERB centering and "perfect" perforations for the issue (the couple teeth that look shorter are thin teeth caused by bent perforation pins), BUT WITH HIDDEN TEAR at top center. Wonderfully fresh with great color. A beautiful example that appears to be in wonderful quality. The paper of this printing is so thin and so crisp that most examples have defects, such as this one. For normal quality, the Facit NH value is SEK 1200 and the Hinged value is SEK 550 -- this is MUCH nicer! Because of the Superb centering, if this did not have the tear, it would easily fetch $110. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #11 [1877 (1878 Printing) 12 cent Bicolor, Red Lilac and Yellow Green, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint -- this has NEVER BEEN HINGED but has some of the typical light gum matting from how the stamps were stored at the post office in the DWI climate -- with F-VF+ centering. One short and two blunted perforations on the left side, but otherwise with "perfect" perforations for the issue (the couple other teeth that look shorter are thin teeth caused by bent perforation pins). No other defects. Wonderfully fresh with great color. A very attractive example! The paper of this printing is so thin and so crisp that most examples have defects, such as these perforation problems. For normal quality, the Facit NH value is SEK 1200 and the Hinged value is SEK 550! ACTUAL item. |

11 [1877 (1878 Printing) 12 cent Bicolor, Red Lilac and Yellow Green, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with Fine centering, nice looking, but with small defects (corner perforation, tiny thin spot, small "hidden" tear). A nice looking example at a very low price. Scott 2024 value is $170 and a Used Fine example without defects, with this centering, would otherwise sell for $120! ACTUAL item. |

11a [1877 12 cent Bicolor, First Printing, Lilac and Deep Green, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with F-VF centering, but rounded lower right corner perforation and heavy cancellations. A very reasonably priced example of a stamp that is almost always damaged due to the extremely thin paper. Otherwise would be $240 for this centering. ACTUAL item. |

12 [1873 14 cent Bicolor, Normal Frame] Mint with Average-Fine centering (typical for this stamp). Full original gum, slightly glazed, with modest hinge remnant. There is a pulled perforation on the right side, but by way of explanation, note that the corresponding perforation tooth on the left side is oversized (caused by a bent perforating pin), suggesting that the pulled perforation on the right side was the result of a similar oversized tooth on the adjacent stamp on the right. Otherwise, this stamp is without the usual serious defects. While one could hope for better centering, this 14 cent stamp is notoriously difficult to find well centered. The lack of major defects is quite unusual for this stamp printed on extremely thin paper. (The paper of this stamp is always extremely thin and fragile, thus perforation problems or much more severe damage is quite common). Approximately 1000 sheets (100,000 stamps) were printed, but 90,158 stamps were destroyed by the post office in 1883, thus the net quantity that could have existed of the normal frame stamps is approximately 9,645. Of that quantity, many were lost or destroyed over time, especially due to the very thin paper and the fact that these were used either on overseas mail or on internal postal accounting documents (which were mostly destroyed). This is a very reasonable looking and very reasonably priced example of a the "rarest face-different stamp" of the Danish West Indies! ACTUAL item. |
