Danish West Indies: Stamps: Scott 11-15  
Scott numbers have been given for these listings. If you would prefer to examine the stamps before purchasing, or you are seeking stamps (or condition or quality) not listed here, you are also welcome to send your want list using Scott, Facit, or AFA numbers.
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 DWI stamps had between two and eight printings, thus colors vary greatly; the colors in the images are random printings/colors.
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.
See additional examples of Danish West Indies Stamps in the following Sections:
Gallery (Selected stamps of particularly high quality or rarity).
Bargain Stamps (Attractive stamps with slight defects).
Specialized Stamps (Varieties, Blocks, Cancellations, and other interesting items).

11a [1877 12 cent Bicolor, First Printing, Lilac and Deep Green, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with F-VF centering, but rounded lower right corner perforation and heavy cancellations.

12 [1873 14 cent Bicolor, Normal Frame] Mint with Average centering (typical for this stamp). Full original gum, only modestly hinged. PERFECT PERFORATIONS and NO DEFECTS, both of which are quite unusual for this "rare" stamp. While one could hope for better centering, this 14 cent stamp is notoriously difficult to find well centered. The lack of defects is quite unusual for this stamp printed on extremely thin paper. (The paper of this stamp is always extremely thin and fragile, thus perforation problems or much more severe damage is quite common). Approximately 1000 sheets (100,000 stamps) were printed, but 90,158 stamps were destroyed by the post office in 1883, thus the net quantity that could have existed of the normal frame stamps is approximately 9,645. Of that quantity, many were lost or destroyed over time, especially due to the very thin paper and the fact that these were used either on overseas mail or on internal postal accounting documents (which were mostly destroyed). This is a very reasonable looking example of a the "rarest face-different stamp" of the Danish West Indies!

12 [1873 14 cent Bicolor, Normal Frame] Mint with Average-Fine centering (typical for this stamp). Full original gum, slightly glazed, with modest hinge remnant. There is a pulled perforation on the right side, but by way of explanation, note that the corresponding perforation tooth on the left side is oversized (caused by a bent perforating pin), suggesting that the pulled perforation on the right side was the result of a similar oversized tooth on the adjacent stamp on the right. Otherwise, this stamp is without the usual serious defects. While one could hope for better centering, this 14 cent stamp is notoriously difficult to find well centered. The lack of major defects is quite unusual for this stamp printed on extremely thin paper. (The paper of this stamp is always extremely thin and fragile, thus perforation problems or much more severe damage is quite common). Approximately 1000 sheets (100,000 stamps) were printed, but 90,158 stamps were destroyed by the post office in 1883, thus the net quantity that could have existed of the normal frame stamps is approximately 9,645. Of that quantity, many were lost or destroyed over time, especially due to the very thin paper and the fact that these were used either on overseas mail or on internal postal accounting documents (which were mostly destroyed). This is a very reasonable looking and very reasonably priced example of a the "rarest face-different stamp" of the Danish West Indies!

13, Facit #13a, AFA 13 Print 1 [1879 50 cent violet, thin paper, Perf 14 x 13.5 "Bicolor"] Mint with F-VF+ centering, full original gum and modest hinge remnant. Excellent perforations (unusual for this stamp), remarkably strong color, and a very crisp impression. Because this printing was on very thin and crisp paper, it seems that most examples have some sort of defect. This is without any defects and is an outstanding example! Undamaged Mint examples of this stamp are missing from most collections. This is an excellent example!

14b [1887 "1 CENT" surcharge on 7 cent violet and yellow (Print 1) Bicolor] Mint with full original gum, but hinge remnant, with F-VF centering. Excellent perforations for this Print 1 stamp. NO defects -- most examples of Scott #14b are damaged and/or without gum. Because most examples on the market seem to be in sub-standard quality (and many not described as such), I believe that this has led #14b to be undervalued in the catalogs. This is a very nice example of a scarce stamp. Of this printing, Facit says "at most 10,000" examples were printed.

14d Lilac and Yellow-Orange (Print 2) with INVERTED FRAME, Facit 23bv1 [1887 "1 CENT" Surcharge on 7 cent Bicolor] Mint with Fine centering. Original gum, but with hinge remnant -- however this is most often found either damaged or without gum. A well-struck and well centered surcharge, but crooked (these were handstamped). An attractive example with nice color and "perfect" perforations. While there was a total of 40,000 stamps surcharged, 30,000 were Print 2, and only 6,900 of those have the inverted frame. Furthermore, many were used or have lost their gum, or were damaged. Lastly, because of the very thin paper, many have been damaged over the years. I suspect that fewer than 1000 mint, undamaged with-gum examples still remain of Print 2 with Inverted Frame. It is a scarce stamp. Very fresh and attractive.

15 [1895 "10 CENTS 1895" Surcharge on 50 cent Bicolor] Mint, lightly hinged, with XF centering. A wonderful example with great color, perfect perforations, almost perfect centering, and wonderful freshness. It can be hard to find undamaged examples of this stamp; it was printed on very thin paper and is often found damaged. The locally-applied overprint was printed with a plate of only 50 positions, struck twice on the sheet; there are many variations in the overprint characters from stamp to stamp. This example is unusual in that it does not show any flaws of the overprint characters, but it is interesting in that the "9" is quite fat. Seldom offered in such nice quality!
