Scott #27, AFA #24.3æ, Facit #30bv2 variety. Printing 3 with catalog-listed variety "Small Pearl Flaw" (position A63 in Printing 3). [1879 5 øre Bicolor, July 1880 printing] Used with Average-Fine centering, but some blunted perforation teeth at top. Neat KJØBENHAVN cancellation that is completely clear of the variety area. Accompanied by a 2003 Lasse Nielsen "Opinion" certificate (LN did not use pictures on the "Opinion" style certificates; but the correct postmark date of this stamp is stated on the "Opinion" certificate) stating "Genuine and without repairs" and "Acceptable copy". For decades, LN was the primary Danish expert for Danish Bicolor stamps. The 2016 AFA Specialized Catalog (still the most recent edition as of 11/2025) catalog value for this variety on this printing is DKK 1600 (as of 11/2025 about $250). This is a reasonable-looking example of a very scarce variety, at a very low price!
