Iceland: Stamps: Scott 159-166: 1930 Allthing / Parliament (Part 2)
Scott numbers have been given for these listings. If you would prefer to examine the stamps before purchasing, or you are any seeking stamps (or any condition or any quality) not listed here, please send your want list using your choice of Scott or Facit numbers.
Unless there is a 6-digit item number in the left-most column, the images shown in this section are standard images of the issues from my image library; they are presented to show the designs of the stamp issues and not to show the specific individual stamps being offered. The centering of the stamps in the images is usually Superb or VF quality; again these are not images of the individual stamps being offered. Most early stamps had multiple printings, thus color shades vary greatly; the colors in the images are random printings/colors. If there is a 6-digit item number in the left-most column, the image is of the actual item being offered.
All the listed conditions and qualities were in stock at the moment this list was prepared and I endeavor to maintain them in stock and to keep this website updated. However, my stock changes daily and (to paraphrase) good stamps are hard to find. If you are willing to accept a different grade or quality if an item is temporarily out of stock, please let me know when ordering (add a comment at the conclusion of the shopping cart process) and please also let me know of any alternates you will consider. Furthermore, new stamps are being put in stock every day; if the quality and/or condition you are seeking is not listed, please send your want list.
The publication of this list is a "first effort" in quite a long time. It surely includes a few errors; I will be grateful if you would inform me of any errors. Stamps "missing" from the list simply might not be included because they are not in stock or are singles which are normally only listed in full sets. Just the same if it seems like something obvious (and not a single from a set) is missing, please let me know. If you can offer for sale items that are not listed here, please do so; I especially need sources of pre-1940 mint (hinged or never hinged) stamps and recent used complete sets. Prices are subject to typographical error and change, but I will do my best to honor the listed prices to the extent of available stock.
TIP: These price list pages are in Scott number order. To most easily navigate these stamp price list pages, use the "drop down" menu located above this text (and at the bottom of every page). You can also hover over the numbered page links and read the name of the page in the bottom status bar of your browser.

Scott #159 [1930 30 aur Parliament / Althing: Bridge] Mint, lightly hinged, with Superb, "perfect" centering. Though this is not a "scarce" stamp in ordinary quality, it is "very scarce" with such nice centering and freshness. This is the nicest LH example that I have had in at least five years!

Scott #162 [1930 50 aur Parliament; Leader and Crowd] Mint, Space Filler. Superb centering, but the gum is either badly regummed or is heavily disturbed and brownish original gum, also with a small amount of that brownish gum on front at upper right. Also with a couple small thin spots. I am not sure what happened to this stamp, but it is priced very low now. This is the second-highest-priced key value of the set and if this were in proper Mint VF quality it would be $97.50.

Scott #164 [1930 2 kr Parliament / Althing: Farm, Countryside] Mint with VF-XF centering, but with only minor gum disturbance in the hinge area where somebody probably removed a hinge remnant. This really is not much different than a Mint Hinged stamp, but I felt it needed to be explained. Wonderfully fresh and attractive looking, with brilliant color and terrific centering. Otherwise a Mint VF lightly hinged example would be $110. This example offers some savings while still being a perfectly sound stamp.

Scott #165 [1930 5 kr Parliament / Althing: Woman Spinning Yarn] Mint, hinge remnant, with Average centering. There is a pre-printing paper bend (not a full fold and mostly only visible from the back side), which would be an unusual type of variety for this stamp issue. Technically this stamp does not have any post-production "defects", but the centering is way off. Still, this looks very fresh and bright. Very fresh and bright. For value comparison purposes, a Mint hinged VF example would be $70 and a Mint hinged Fine example would be $36. This is price very low!

Scott #166 IMPERFORATE [1930 10 kr Parliament / Althing: Chief at Ring Oath Ceremony] Mint, modestly hinged, bottom sheet margin single with very large and even stamp margins. Wonderful XF appearance with great color! A classic stamp design that would make a perfect highlight to an Iceland collection!
