Scott #2-6 Complete Set (Type I) [1940-41 Overprints] Used with VF centering (Scott #5 50-on-5 øre is F-VF centered), all with neat, correct cancellation types in use at that time. As a "free bonus", the Scott #5 (50-on-5 øre) has the Daka (2017) #7ø OVERPRINT VARIETY: "left end of bottom bar is shorter" from plate position 78 -- this variety roughly doubles the value of the stamp! Also as an additional "free bonus", the Scott #3 (20-on-5 øre) has a partial, faint "starless" (uds) cancellation and Scott #4 (20-on-15 øre) has a neat, partial, readable (AND)EFJORD "starless" (uds) cancellation -- that is one of the scarcer starless (uds) cancellations. This is a very attractive scarcer set that is missing from many collections. (I guarantee that this set is genuine. It is not a set that normally requires a certificate, however, this set already comes with a certificate.) Scott #3 and #4 only exist in one overprint type. However, Scott #2, #5, and #6 exist in two overprint types. Overprint Type 1 is the lower cost type. Accompanied by a 1994 Lars Svendsen color photo certificate; a respected expertizer in his day. This is great set of stamps that can be quite hard to find with such nice appearance. The individual total of these stamps normal prices (adjusting for the #5 in F-VF) is $506. The variety on the #5 would add another $50 and the postmark on the #4 would add another $25, for a grand total of $581. This set is offered, with the certificate included, at a significant discount!

Scott #2 Type I, Facit #4I, AFA #2A, Daka GF10 2017 #4 [2 May 1941 (1st Printing) 20 øre overprint on 1 øre Wavy-Line Numeral] NEVER HINGED with Fine centering. Very fresh and bright. The Type I overprint was issued 2 May 1941 (the second printing was issued 28 May 1941). Type I has 12 mm spacing between the 20s, measured from right side to right side of the "0" numerals in the overprint (Type II has 13 mm spacing). The Type II stamps are scarcer. Completely NH and absolutely no defects, but offered at a very low price because of the centering. For comparison, Type I NH VF would be $70!

Scott #2 Type II, Facit #4II, AFA #2B, Daka GF10 2017 #9 [28 May 1941 (2nd Printing) 20 øre overprint on 1 øre Wavy-Line Numeral] Mint, hinged, with VF centering. Very fresh and bright with well-centered stamp and well-centered overprint. The Type II overprint was the result of a second printing, issued 28 May 1941 (the first printing was issued 2 May 1941). Type II has 13 mm spacing between the 20s, measured from right side to right side of the "0" numerals in the overprint (Type I has 12 mm spacing). The Type II stamps are much scarcer and can also be quite difficult to find with nice centering.

Scott #3 OVERPRINT VARIETY, Daka GF10 2017 #5æ [1941 20 øre overprint on 5 øre Wavy-Line Numeral] Mint, lightly hinged, with Superb centering, but WITH A THIN in the hinge area. Very fresh and bright, with "perfect" centering. Daka-listed "POINTED BOTTOM OF RIGHT BAR" overprint variety from position 92 in the sheet. (There is a somewhat similar variety that has additional damage to the inside edge of the right bar, from position 42, but this is not that variety.) This beautiful stamp without the overprint variety, but with this Superb centering and hinged would be $65 -- and the variety it would have been $80. This example, with the thin, is offered at a very reasonable price.

Scott #5 Type I [1940 50 øre overprint on 5 øre Wavy-lines Numeral; 1940 Overprint Type I] Used with VF centering and with a neat, correct type of cancellation in use at that time. A very attractive example of a scarcer stamp that is missing from many collections. (I guarantee that this stamp is genuine. It is not a stamp that normally requires a certificate, however, if you wish to have a certificate, for the reduced cost of only $20 I will supply a Jay Smith certificate with "Lifetime" Guarantee. Allow an extra week for processing.) Overprint Type I has 12.75 mm spacing, a crisp impression, and solid black numerals. Overprint Type II has 13+ mm spacing, a slightly doubled-looking impression, and partially UNfilled numerals. The measuring is done from the right edge of the left "0" the right edge of the right "0". This is great example of a stamp that can be quite hard to find with such nice appearance.
