B1 INVERTED WATERMARK, Facit #105cx [1916 5 öre ovpt on 2 öre First Semi-Postal issue] Used Fine+, with almost complete "HALMSTAD Lbr" (letter box) smaller-town cancellation. Clear (without fluid) inverted wavy-line watermark. Facit 2018 value SEK 800 ($105 8/2018 with a typical cancellation). Examples of even the basic stamp with smaller-town cancellation are very unusual; they are extremely scarce on the watermark varieties. The specialist will appreciate just how scarce this item is!

B1 INVERTED WATERMARK AND KPV WATERMARK, Facit #105cxz [1916 5 öre ovpt on 2 öre First Semi-Postal issue] Used with VF centering. and almost complete, but inverted, "HAPARANDA" smaller-town cancellation. The cancel is a bit heavy, but there is no doubt about its use! Clear (without fluid) inverted wavy-line watermark AND KPV watermark. Facit 2018 value SEK 2400 ($310 8/2018 with a typical cancellation). Examples of even the basic stamp with smaller-town cancellation are very unusual; they are extremely scarce on the watermark varieties. This watermark-double-variety is extremely scarce -- one might even say rare. In 45 years I believe I have had one mint example, but this is the only used example! The specialist will appreciate just how scarce this item is both with the watermark variety and the smaller-town cancellation! By the way, Haparanda is located at the northerly extreme of the Swedish coastline, and is the eastern-most community. As the key to the primary land route to Finland, it has great historical importance.
