226a INVERTED OVERPRINT [1996 4.25 overprint on 0.25 Queen; Slania-engraved underlying stamp]. NH example with XF centering (tremendously better than usual for this major error; about as good as they get) with top margin selvage showing a sheet-margin position dot which can locate this stamp position in the sheet. Accompanied by a 2024 Jay Smith color image certificate with "lifetime guarantee". These errors were first discovered by Thorkild Jakobsen who purchased error stamps at the post office in Ilulissat, Greenland. Approximately 750 total examples exist. Scott 2024 value $1100, Facit 2022 (most recent edition) value SEK 9000. It has now been almost 30 years since the time of issue and the existing examples have been widely distributed. Because most of the stamps only had F-VF or sometimes VF centering, it is challenging to a find such a nicely centered XF example. From the Margaret Morris collection. Beautiful and fresh!

233-8 [1991 Seals] approximately 0.75-1.00 ounce officially shredded by the Greenland post office and used for packing material in a shipment from Greenland. The material is thin-cut, but not cross-cut, thus you might be able to piece enough together to determine why it was shredded. Was it shredded due to unpublicized errors or was it simply withdrawn from sale??? Would make a neat desk ornament if put in a glass display bottle or similar arrangement. I have never before seen shredded stamps that reached the public via official channels. Price includes shipping in the U.S.; it is a bit awkward to ship despite the low weight.
