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, Facit, or AFA 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.
This list surely includes a few errors; I will be grateful if you would inform me of any errors you see. 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 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.

Denmark Scott #35 [1882 5 øre Arms with Small Corner Numerals, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with F-VF+ centering and neat SWEDISH RAILWAY cancellation (likely resulting from Danish-Swedish railway-ferry traffic), but with tiny thin spot. Very attractive example, with great dark yellow-green color, clearly showing the features of this Small Corner Numerals stamp (including the gap between the oval and top and bottom frame lines). A scarcer stamp that would otherwise be $100 with this centering, with a normal cancellation. An unusual example!

39a, Facit #51, AFA #35x [1885 (Print 6, 1888) 10 øre Arms with SMALL Corner Numerals, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with F-VF centering and neat "(KØBE)NHAVN G" cancellation. This error came about when three reserve cliches from the 1882 postal card issue were accidentally placed among the cliches for printing stamps. The three error cliches only exist from sheet positions 94, 96, and 97, all only in Printing 6. Interestingly, Scott and AFA list this stamp as varieties of the large corner numeral issues, however Facit lists it with the 5 and 20 øre small corner numeral stamps (Scott #35 and 37), considering it a "major" stamp, not a variety. Due to the plate layout vs the cliche size, and how the printers registered the perforations (selected a place on the sheet where the stamps would be well centered), the bottom row -- where all these come from -- is virtually always only Fine centered or worse. This example is F-VF centered, which is actually quite a bit nicer than usual for this "rare" item. A "rare" stamp that is missing from virtually all collections of Denmark. Facit 2024 value SEK 6,500 (about $650 1/2024); AFA 2023 value is DKK 4,500 (about $675 1/2024). An outstanding example of a stamp that is seldom offered. This is the first Used example that I have been able to offer in many years. This stamp is accompanied by a Jay Smith color image certificate with lifetime guarantee (further details of the guarantee are available). [C#02852-01-007]

39c PAIR Containing Scott #39a. Facit #51v2, AFA #35x [1885 (Print 6, 1888) 10 øre Arms with SMALL Corner Numerals, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint hinged with Just-Fine centering. Original gum, slightly disturbed, with hinge remnant in place to help stabilize the pair. Horizontal PAIR of Scott #39 and #39a (thus Scott #39c pair). The #39a, small corner numerals stamp, is on the right, and is from plate position 96. This pair is INTACT, but with some perforation separation, with the remaining intact perforations reinforced by a hinge remnant. This error came about when three reserve cliches from the 1882 postal card issue were accidentally placed among the cliches for printing stamps. The three error cliches exist from sheet positions 94, 96, and 97, all only in Printing 6. The three positions can be discerned by small details in the printing impression and by the small irregularities in the perforation teeth. The crisp paper and the fine, large-hole perforations result in pairs / multiples being fragile, with the consequence that most pairs have fallen apart many a very long time ago. Interestingly, Scott and AFA list this stamp as varieties of the large corner numeral issues, however Facit lists it with the 5 and 20 øre small corner numeral stamps (Scott #35 and 37). Due to the plate layout vs the cliche size, and how the printers registered the perforations (selected a place on the sheet where the stamps would be well centered), the bottom row -- where all these come from -- is virtually always only Fine centered or worse. This example is Just Fine centered, which is actually typical for this item. The perforations of the left stamp (normal 39) barely clear the design, but the right stamp (the 39a variety) is Fine with perforations completely clearing the design. A "rare" item that is missing from virtually all collections of Denmark. Facit 2024 value SEK 5000 (about $500 10/2023); AFA 2023 value is DKK 4000 (about $600 10/2023); and Scott 2023 value is $600. This pair is much scarcer than those catalog values would suggest. Accompanied by a Jay Smith certificate with "lifetime" guarantee.
Scott #40 [1884 20 øre Arms, Large Corner Numerals, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint, no gum, with Superb centering. Such nicely centered examples of this stamp are hard to find. AFA-listed variety #36w "white line in S of POST". Also this example has the lighter color of the earlier printings. Otherwise, a normal example (disregarding the variety and color shade) would be $85 for this Superb centering if Mint Hinged with gum.
