17 Dark Gray, Facit #12Sf [1875 2 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11 (this color 1879)] Used with XF centering and neat "grid of dots" cork/carved cancellation. Discoloration on reverse from ancient album mounting; does not affect the front. Interesting plate variety: "White spot to upper left of upper right 2". Though the different colors of this stamp do not list any premium values, in my experience this Dark Gray is least often seen and especially not in such nice quality. Very attractive! ACTUAL item. |

18, Facit #13SC1f [1875 5 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11] Brilliant Brownish Orange Used 4-BLOCK with 14 April 1880 Helsingfors 4-ring cancellations. Centering within the block ranges from F-VF to Superb. This printing is one of the scarcer colors (Facit 2014 SEK 350 per stamp). Used blocks are very scarce; Facit 2014 indicates block values "from" SEK 3000 for the most common colors, while the Norma Catalog indicates a multiplier of 20x the singles price which is approximately 700 Euros! A handsome and scarce block! ACTUAL item. |

18 [1875 5 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11] Used with VF-XF centering and boxed "ANK" (Swedish for received or arrival) cancellation. Would be XF or Superb if not for an extremely wide left margin. Oversize stamp all around. Brilliant Yellow-Orange color. Very attractive example! ACTUAL item. |

18 [1875 5 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11] Bright Yellow-Orange. Used F-VF with neat blue "...URENG..." straight-line railway station cancellation. This general type of cancellation is quite scarce on the 1875 4-Numeral issues and I am not aware of any listing or cataloging of them on the 1875 stamps. I have not been able to identify this one; it is likely a tiny rural station far from any post office. As an added bonus, the top three right-side perf holes are blind (did not get punched out); not often encountered on this stamp. A very unusual example! ACTUAL item. |

18, Facit #13SC1a Dark Yellow Orange [1875 5 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11] Used with Average centering, but one short perforation. Very neat, light blue, arc-style (BO)RGA cancellation that appears to be dated (18 or 28) January 1876 (this first printing/color was first available 21 November 1875). Typical centering for this early printing. An attractive example of this distinctive, scarcer color. Facit 2024 value SEK 300. ACTUAL item. |

19 Dark Bluish Green on Thin Paper, Facit #14Sc (Bluish) [1875 8 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11] Used with VF centering and neat town (partial ABO 2-ring) cancellation. The color difference is subtle, but this is the Dark Bluish Green. The paper is always thin on this color, but this example is unusually bright white. An excellent, attractive example. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #19 Dark Green on Thick Paper, Facit #14Sdz [1875 8 penni 4-Numeral, Perf 11] Used with F-VF++ centering and neat, crisp carved / cork "circle of lines" cancellation. The color difference is subtle, but this is the Dark Green, rather than the more common Dark Bluish Green. The paper is called thick by the catalogers; that description is perhaps more relative than absolute, but it is quite a bit thicker than the normally thin paper of this issue. An outstanding example with great color, excellent perforations for this issue, an interesting cancellation, and wonderful overall appearance. ACTUAL item. |
