10, Facit #11d, AFA 7.4 [1876 6 aur gray, blurred print Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5, Fourth Printing] NEVER HINGED with F-VF centering. Wonderfully fresh -- this must be from a recently broken block. An interesting feature of stamps from this printing is that when viewed under 10x magnification at an oblique angle to a point-light source, the ink has a silvery metallic sheen. NH examples of this stamp (Scott #10) are very scarce and seldom offered. (The 4th and 5th printings have the same NH value, no premium for the printing.) Terrific color, perfect perforations, and perfect original gum. [Facit 2022 value SEK 4000 (about $440 2/2022).]

10, Facit #11e [1876 6 aur, Perf 14 x 13.5, 1895 Printing] Mint Superb, OG lightly hinged. Wonderful example showing 4th horizontal hole blind Perforation "Error" as listed or mentioned in the specialized catalogs. Perfect centering, wonderfully fresh color and gum, perfect perforations (with the Perf Error). An outstanding example. The Perf Errors are quite hard to find in such nice quality.

10 First Printing, Facit #11a, AFA 7.1 [1876 6 aur violetish gray Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5] Mint with VF centering, partial disturbed original gum remains. This first printing is extremely scarce with any gum at all, to say nothing of full gum -- it is also very scarce with nice centering. This is an exceptional appearing example with great color, really nice perforations, and remarkably nice centering. [Facit 2022 value SEK 3000 (about $330 2/2022).]

10, Facit #11d, AFA 7.4x Plate Variety [1876 6 aur gray, blurred print Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5, Fourth Printing] Used with Fine+ centering and full, well-centered REYKJAVIK single-ring cancellation. AFA-listed #7x Print 4 (DKK 800 [$120 10/2023] in the 2016 Specialized, most recent edition) plate variety: "White spot in front of P; white spot over O; diagonal cuts in lower left corner and frameline; dent in right frame line near bottom opposite AU". An interesting feature of stamps from this printing is that when viewed under 10x magnification at an oblique angle to a point-light source, the ink has a silvery metallic sheen.

10, Facit #11d, AFA 7.4 [1876 6 aur gray, blurred print Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5, Fourth Printing] Used with Fine+ centering and full, perfectly-centered, but inverted, fully dated 9 December 1894 REYKJAVIK bridge-type cancellation. An interesting feature of stamps from this printing is that when viewed under 10x magnification at an oblique angle to a point-light source, the ink has a silvery metallic sheen. Examples of the Numeral stamps are surprisingly difficult to find with fully (including year) dated cancellations because the more usual single-ring cancellations did not include a year date. In this case, the presence of the 1894 date is a nice because it means that this stamp cannot be from Print 5 which was in July 1895. A very attractive example with a nice cancellation.

10, Facit #11a First Printing [1876 6 aur, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint F-VF, original gum. With color described by Facit as "dark gray (violet tinge), blurred print", the first printing stamps have very distinctive appearance. Because this printing was on an extremely thin paper most examples that are encountered are damaged, usually badly, and usually without gum too. This example is not only in sound condition, but it fresh and attractive -- this must be the freshest mint example I have had in 37 years. The 2010 Facit value is SEK 2600 = $365 [9/10], but this value does not properly reflect the scarcity of undamaged examples. 25% fewer of these were printed than Iceland #1, which has a value four times as much!

11, Facit #12d (Print 7) Thick Paper, with Perforation Variety. [1876 10 aur, Perf 14 x 13.5, 1895 printing] Mint with original gum, VF centering! Catalog listed perforation "error": blind hole 4 on top and bottom; on this denomination, only exists on the 1895 printing. On this example, the rough perforation also shows that the perforator was really wearing out by this time. Also with unlisted plate variety: Bottom frame line with dent at center and thinning to the left corner. A very handsome mint example of this workhorse stamp of which supplies were exhausted in normal postal use.

11 PERFORATION ERROR, Facit #12d variety, AFA #8.7y variety, Clear Carmine Red, Thick Paper [1876 10 aur Numeral, Perf 14 x 13.5 (1895 printing)] This perforation "error" variety -- blind perforation in 5th horizontal hole -- is one of four possible varieties resulting from missing horizontal row pins in the perforating machine -- they are constant varieties on the 7th (1895) printing of this stamp (and the 1895 printings of the 3 and 6 aur stamps). Each of the different perforation errors affects that vertical column in the sheet. Additionally this example has one of the several versions of the AFA #8y plate variety: "Chunk missing from upper right frame line". Similar, but different versions of this variety exist in the sheet; at least two different exist with this particular perforation error. Mint with VF centering with only modest hinging. Very attractive appearance -- exceptionally well-centered example. Mint examples of the perforation errors can be quite hard to find. A normal example of this mint stamp would be $270 -- the perforation errors are much scarcer.

A normal example of this mint stamp, without the thin spot and with this centering would be $204 -- the perforation errors are much scarcer.

11, Facit #12a-II (Print 2) Early Printing, Light Reddish Carmine, Thin Paper. AFA #8.2 [1876 (1878 Printing) 10 aur, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with Fine centering and neat, light single ring cancellation. Facit #12a represents printings 1-4 (but the AFA lists them individually); the individual printings are of course scarcer than the combined quantity of all four printings. Examples of the early printings in attractive quality are surprisingly hard to find. The AFA Specialized 2016 (the most recent edition) value is DKK 300 [about US$45 10/2023] while the Facit 2024 value for all four printings combined is SEK 400 [about US$40 10/2023]. An excellent example of this early color.

Excellent color, perfect centering, and perfect perforations. [This 1891 grayish brown "unclean color" printing can be hard to distinguish from the 1886 yellowish brown printing (color names per the catalogs). When directly compared, the 1891 color does look a bit grayish (and sometimes muddy), but in my opinion it looks more yellowish than the 1886 printing. If I had selected the color names, I would have called the 1891 yellowish brown and the 1886 either brown or reddish brown.] Such nice looking Mint examples of the 16 aur are quite hard to find. This must be the nicest Mint example of this stamp that I have had in 47 years!

Each of the different perforation errors affects that vertical column in the sheet. Mint with F-VF centering. There is some gum loss where a hinge was removed (and the gum went with the hinge), but it does not have a thin and does not show any defect in watermark fluid. Very attractive appearance.

15 Golden Yellow [1882 3 aur, Small 3, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint with VF centering and large margins, but no gum and with a small crease that could perhaps be flattened out. This is a complicated and controversial stamp color; it was the subject of an extensive article, by expert Lasse Nielsen, in one of the Danish journals around 2013-2017; I cannot find my copy of the article at this moment. For many years Facit did not list this color, but they do now as Facit #8v3. Facit describes it as being on "thick soft white paper from Printing 2 or 3, not yet determined which". I agree with that except that in my opinion, the paper is "medium (but close to thin), very crisp (not soft), and it is white." AFA lists this color as #12.3b, being from Printing 3b and describes the paper as "medium". Regardless, this is an extremely scarce stamp. Facit and AFA only price it (as they always do) with gum, but the three Mint examples I have recorded having in the last 25 years have all been without gum; I do not think I have had an example with gum in my 48-year career. Facit 2022 value is SEK 8000 = $960 [12/2021] and AFA Specialized 2016 (most recent edition) value is DKK 6000 = $1020 [12/2021]. Well centered examples of this color are "rare". Despite the small crease, which is hard to see, this is by far the best looking example of this stamp that I have had in 48 years. It is really stunning with wonderful centering, brilliant color, and perfect perforations. An exceptional stamp that will help to build an exceptional collection.

20, Facit #19, AFA #17 INVERTED FRAME [1892 100 aur brown and lilac Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5] Mint, moderately hinged, with F-VF centering. [The Bicolored Numeral stamps of Iceland do have frame differences (the quantity of vertical background lines broken by the upper right or lower left corner triangles that identify the frames as upright or inverted. By chance the quantities are even; the plate consisted of 51 upright vs 49 inverted frame stamps, thus there is no price premium. For details, see this article with illustrations on my website. However, this difference is unknown to most collectors; if the difference was more obvious and better known, the extant quantity of stamps would be divided in half, with each half being assigned different catalog numbers -- half as many stamps (of each number) would result in higher catalog values / prices for each of the two types.] This example is very fresh and bright, with nice centering, and perfect perforations. Priced just as a basic stamp with this centering.
