Scott #16, Facit #16d, Yellow Green [1873 1 skilling Posthorn] Used with Fine+ centering and neat, upright STOCKMARKNÆS single-ring small-town cancellation. Based on the cancellation style, this was used in the proper period, before 1877. The day-date has a "2" followed by a big spacer slug; such is rarely seen in the cancels of this period. The month is October; the year is 7 followed by what is likely a 3 or a 6. In the NK Postal II (2014) this cancellation has a rarity factor of 2 on the red 3-skilling value, but small town cancels are scarce on the other denominations because the other denominations did not see as much use from small towns. The 2025 Facit value for the stamp alone with this in-period type of cancellation is SEK 350. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #18, Facit #18b, Carmine on White Paper [1871 3 skilling Posthorn] Used with Fine centering and neat, upright, fully dated 21 June 1877 "(BUREA)U REEXPEDIANT DE CHR(IST)IANIA" single-ring RAILWAY cancellation. A strike from this cancellation device is too large to fit on a single stamp; this is about as good as it can get on a single stamp! In the NK Postal II (2014) this cancellation has a price of NOK 50 on the red 3-skilling value, but examples this nicely struck are hard to find. ACTUAL item. |

Scott #21 White Paper, Facit #21a [1873 7 sk Posthorn] Used with F-VF centering and a crisp, VF centered "CHRISTIANIA OMK." (Type 4) 26 May 1875 single-ring RAILWAY cancellation, used in the proper time period. This stamp is hard to find with such complete and well-centered cancellations and hard to find with railway cancellations. An excellent example in very nice quality. ACTUAL item. |
