Scott #5, K Spacing, Lilac-Rose (Facit #4C1Kc) [1860 10 kopek Serpentine, Roulette I] Used VF appearance and FULL TEETH but with aged-toned paper. This example has Facit "K" spacing (1.6 mm horizontally and 1.6 mm vertically) between the stamps and the delicate Lilac Rose color. Adjacent-stamp frame lines are visible on the right and bottom, both with 1.6 mm spacing. With a neat, partial low-box style "TAM..." (can only be TAMMERFORS) cancellation. A very reasonable example at a very low price. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #5, K or LK Spacing, Carmine-Rose (Facit #4C1Lb/LKb) [1860 10 kopek Serpentine, Roulette I] Used with F-VF appearance and only one tooth missing, but with creases (most only visible on the reverse). This example has either Facit "LK" spacing (1.6 mm horizontally and 2.3 mm vertically) or Facit "L" spacing (1.6 mm horizontally and 1.6 mm vertically) and a delicate Carmine Rose color. The top measurement is 2.7 mm with no adjacent stamp frameline located above, thus this has to be a top margin example. The bottom measurement is less than 1.6 mm, thus it cannot be known if it is 1.6 or 2.7 mm spacing at bottom. However, the right-side measurement is 1.6 mm (the frame of the adjacent stamp is just barely visible on two tooth tips). Thus this can be either K or LK spacing. With a bold "x" manuscript cancel as often seen on this issue. A very reasonable example at a very low price. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #4a [1860 5 kopek Serpentine, Roulette II] Used with F-VF appearance, but with a thin. There is only one missing tooth (maybe two if an irregular corner is counted), but also the typical couple creased tooth tips. Looks nice with a very light cancellation, bright color, and a very sharp printing impression. Very low priced. (Scott 2025 value $190.) ACTUAL item. |

Scott #6b Lilac Brown, Facit #5v3C3 [1866 5 penni Roulette III (1871-1873), ORDINARY (wove) PAPER] Used with Fine centering but overall wonderful appearance. Three teeth partially missing or blunted; couple other teeth with base-tears in them that can only be seen under 10x magnification. Almost complete BRAHESTAD arc-style 10 October 1873 cancellation. This stamp (Scott #6, 6a, 6b) was printed on ordinary paper; in collections often the more common #12 on laid paper is found in its place. Double check which you have in this spot in your album. Remarkably nice looking example of a scarce stamp! ACTUAL item. |

Two shorter teeth, but also clipped teeth tips on right side. Extremely light cancellation. A very reasonable example at a very reasonable price. ACTUAL item. |
