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.

O53 [1930 3 aur Parliament Building, Official Overprint] Mint, very lightly hinged, with Superb centering and very large margins. Wonderfully fresh with bright color, perfect perforations, perfect gum (lightly hinged). An outstanding example of a stamp that has a modest catalog value, but is very hard to find in such nice quality.

Scott #O56 [1930 10 aur Parliament, Viking Ship in Calm Water, Official Overprint] Used with F-VF centering. Wonderfully fresh with great color, and partially complete, correct type of the illustrated "þINGVELLIR / 930-1930" thousand-year cancellation. This cancellation device did not include an actual date, but when it was applied to a cover somewhere else on the cover a normal dated cancellation would also be struck. This stamp issue was only valid during 1930, thus with this cancellation type, the use was during 1930. A very nice example of a stamp of which it is hard to find nice, properly canceled examples.

The cancellation is dated 24 February; this set of stamps was only valid for use in 1930. A very nice example of a stamp of which it is hard to find nice, properly canceled examples.

Scott #O60 [1930 30 aur Parliament, Bridge over Chasm, Official Overprint] Used with XF-Superb centering. Wonderfully fresh with bright color, "perfect" perforations, and neat partial, correct type of REYKJAVIK town cancellation. [Describing centering on the 1930 Parliament issue depends upon how you view the artist initials in the bottom margin, either as part of the whole design or outside the design. If part of the whole design, then this is Superb; if outside the design, then this is XF -- but arguably, how could this look any better?] A very nice example of a stamp of which it is hard to find nice, properly canceled examples.

O64 [1930 1 kr Map of Iceland, Official Overprint] Mint with F-VF centering, but expertly regummed (it looks NH and the previous owner thought it was OG NH). A reasonable-looking and inexpensive example of a key stamp that is surprisingly hard to find without quality problems. Otherwise would be $149 as Mint OG Hinged (and $395 as OG NH).

Scott #O66 [1930 5 kr Parliament, Woman Spinning Yarn, Official Overprint] Used with F-VF centering and a very neat, light cancellation. While only about one-quarter of the cancellation is present, what is present is shows the correct ornamentation for a typical Reykjavik cancellation of this period. Brilliant color, perfect perforations, and wonderful overall freshness. Such attractive USED examples of this high denomination are seldom offered.
