23 INVERTED FRAME [1900 4 aur Numeral, Perf 12.75] NEVER HINGED with VF centering. Wonderfully fresh and attractive, with bright colors, perfect perforations, post office fresh gum, and excellent centering. Though listed in the AFA Specialized Catalog (2016 [in stock] or 1995 original edition or 1997 English translation), but not yet by Facit, the fact that there are inverted and normal frames of the Icelandic bi-colored Numeral stamps (4, 25, 50, and 100 aur) is not known by most collectors. Each sheet contained 51 normal frames and 49 inverted frames. For details, see my article with illustrations on my website. This is a wonderful example of "fun fact" kind of item that few people even know exists! Priced just as a basic NH stamp with this centering.

93 [1912 10 aur Frederik VIII] NEVER HINGED with Fine centering. Very fresh with great color and pristine gum. Typical rough perforations for this issue. While this is not a "scarce" stamp, NH examples can be hard to find. For comparison, a F-VF centered NH example of this stamp would be $85! Price very attractively.

60, Facit #45c [1902 5 aur Perf 14 x 13.5 with Red I GILDI overprint] Mint, lightly hinged, with F-VF+ centering. The overprint is from Setting V and is position 11 on the overprint plate (of 50) which correctly corresponds with the underlying sheet position possibilities of 11 or 61 (based on the cliche features of the underlying stamp). This overprint exists on all three printings / colors of the underlying stamp -- this is Facit #45c, the Light Green. The stamp is in outstanding quality for this issue, with wonderfully fresh color and with perfect perforations. One perforation tooth toward the left, at top and bottom, is very thin -- this is a natural feature of the perforation tool in that column of stamps of the sheet. AIEP member and preeminent I Gildi expert Ellis Glatt viewed a high resolution image of the stamp in October 2024 and commented that the overprint is genuine in his opinion. This stamp is accompanied by a Jay Smith color image certificate with a "lifetime guarantee" from Jay Smith (details of the guarantee are available upon request). The Scott 2025 value is $2100 and the Facit 2024 value is SEK 19,000. An outstanding example of an extremely scarce stamp! [From the Frederick H. Campbell collection.]

VERY LARGE PART OF SHEET MARGIN WATERMARK LETTERS from the left margin of the sheet, and only showing a tiny tip of the crown watermark. While small parts of the letters watermark is not "scarce" on this issue, examples with this much showing are very unusual. [From the Frederick H. Campbell collection.]

Such cancellations were applied to incoming mail that had either been posted at sea on Icelandic ships or which had been handed to Icelandic ship captains at a dock in Iceland. Scottish cancellations on early Icelandic stamps can be found, however, the quality is RARELY THIS NICE. This is an exceptional example in every regard! [From the Frederick H. Campbell collection.]

Excellent appearance. PLATE VARIETY AFA #14.5æ "break in lower frame line near the left corner". The AFA 2016 Specialized Catalog (most recent edition) assigns a 50% premium value (thus DKK 800 = $120 [10/2024] for typical examples of this plate variety.) [From the Frederick H.

A couple blunted perforations, but such light cancellations and great appearance are quite unusual for this scarce stamp. PLATE VARIETY not listed by AFA, but obvious enough that it would normally be listed by AFA: "dent in bottom frame line near right corner". A wonderful looking example that would otherwise (without the couple blunted perfs) sell for $290!

45 [1902 5 aur Perf 12.75 with Red I GILDI overprint] Mint Hinged with Average centering. AFA-listed plate variety #26Bæ: "Short right leg of A of ISLAND". The AFA catalog lists the underlying stamp with this variety at a much higher premium (DKK 450 [6/2024 US$65] for Mint Hinged!) than the other listed varieties. The variety is clearly visible (not covered by the overprint). Priced very low due to the stamp centering, but still a hard-to-find variety.

45 [1902 5 aur Perf 12.75 with Red I GILDI overprint] Mint Hinged with F-VF+ centering. Unlisted (by AFA) plate variety -- but listed by Regeling as Cliche Variety C5 -- "Dented-in upper right corner". This variety exists in all normal printings of the 5 aur stamp. The underlying stamps were printed in four quarters with a 25-subject plate, thus this variety occurs four times in the sheet. Each time the plate was disassembled for cleaning and reassembled, this variety ended up in a different position. There were three printings (Regeling 6, 7, and 8) of this perforation; this variety can thus exist from PLATE (not sheet) positions 21, 35, and 11 respectively (thus SHEET positions: Regeling Print 6: 21, 26, 71, 76. Print 7: 35, 40, 85, 90. Print 8: 11, 61, 66.). It is surprising that the AFA Specialized Catalog does not list this very obvious variety -- they list many similar varieties on other Numeral stamps. When AFA does list such a variety, Mint Hinged is assigned a value of DKK 200-250 (6/2024 US$ $30-$37) for the underlying stamp (AFA does not list the plate varieties at all for the overprinted stamps). Very attractive and someday may (should) become a listed variety.

46 [1902 6 aur Perf 12.75 with Red I GILDI overprint] NEVER HINGED with F-VF+ centering, top margin example. The underlying stamps were printed in four quarters with a 25-subject plate. This AFA-LISTED PLATE VARIETY is 27Bx "White spot in front of POST, dent in right frame line near AUR, scratches in lower left corner". Regeling Cliche number is C8 (the plate position with the greatest damage). Regeling states that (for this perforation) this cliche is plate position 42 in Print 6 and plate position 1 in Print 7. Thus this top margin example must be from Print 7 (either sheet position 1 or 6). The marginal watermark text indicates that this stamp has to be from sheet position 6. [This example is an excellent illustration of one method to work out the plate position vs sheet position.] On the unoverprinted stamps, AFA values the varieties at 2 to 2.5 times the normal value (this compares to 4 to 13 times on the 5 aur stamps, due to the higher value to start with -- a 4 to 8 times multiple is more appropriate on the lower-value 6 aur overprinted stamps). Wonderfully fresh and attractive.

This example appears to be a late stage of the variety in which the upper frame line is almost completely gone in that location. The underlying stamp is valued at about double with the variety.

There is only one possible postmark for the letters showing in this cancellation. This postmark on the least costly stamp is listed by Facit 2024 at SEK 400. The stamp itself with an ordinary postmark would sell for $54. Crown and Posthorn cancellations are unusual on the I GILDI stamps. Very pretty stamp.

SKILLING 1873 IMPERFORATE PLATE PROOFS Complete Set (Scott #1-5, O1-2). The complete set of seven imperforate plate proofs, both the regular postage stamps and the officials. Thick white paper, without watermark, never gummed. All are in the issued colors except for the 3 skilling which is a blackish gray (a proof in the issued light gray is not known to exist). The quality of this set is extraordinary. Usually these proofs are found in very poor quality, including small margins, creases, and especially thins. This set is perfect, with huge margins, except for: the 3 skilling has smaller margin at top and an irregular printing impression at bottom; the 4 red skilling (postage) looks superb, but has a small thin spot; the green 4 skilling (official) has a natural paper inclusion (small speck of tree fiber). The 3 skilling has faint pre-printing paper fold which is a variety, not a defect. The colors are all wonderfully fresh and strong, including the usually faded 9 skilling light lilac official. These proofs are usually found one at a time -- this is the first time in 50 years that I have been able to offer the complete set, and by far the nicest quality that I have seen in one set. Facit Classic 2014 value SEK 14,000.

44B [1904 5 kr Christian IX] Used with XF centering. Very fresh appearance with great color, clean white paper, and perfect perforations. Neat lower corner cancellation almost "face free". An additional interesting feature of this example, though it does not increase the price, is that the crown watermark is horizontally split (shifted so that the right and left halves are on each stamp); this is not unusual on lower denominations, but I have seen very few such examples of the 5 kronur stamp. The centering and cancellation are exceptional for this stamp (it is usually very poorly centered). One of the nicest looking Used examples I have had in several years. A great example of a key Icelandic stamp that is quite scarce in nice Used condition.

36 [1902 5 aur Christian IX] Used with XF centering and attractive, about 50% complete, violet BREIÐDA(ALSVIK) Type 2 (only type for this town) Crown and Posthorn cancellation. Facit C/P cancel #118 (2024 value SEK 400). Though this particular C/P cancel does not have a very high catalog value, this strike is remarkably nice and readable; it is especially nice to show the first letters of the town -- also, it is upright and on a well-centered stamp. An excellent example for this type of postmark! The stamp was issued 9 October 1902 and the use almost all (including this one) C/P cancellations ceased by summer of 1903, thus this cancellation on this stamp was only possible for about 8 months!

AFA-listed #7x Print 4 (DKK 800 [$120 10/2023] in the 2016 Specialized, most recent edition) plate variety: "White spot in front of P; white spot over O; diagonal cuts in lower left corner and frameline; dent in right frame line near bottom opposite AU". An interesting feature of stamps from this printing is that when viewed under 10x magnification at an oblique angle to a point-light source, the ink has a silvery metallic sheen. A very attractive example with a nice cancellation.

10, Facit #11d, AFA 7.4 [1876 6 aur gray, blurred print Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5, Fourth Printing] Used with Fine+ centering and full, perfectly-centered, but inverted, fully dated 9 December 1894 REYKJAVIK bridge-type cancellation. An interesting feature of stamps from this printing is that when viewed under 10x magnification at an oblique angle to a point-light source, the ink has a silvery metallic sheen. Examples of the Numeral stamps are surprisingly difficult to find with fully (including year) dated cancellations because the more usual single-ring cancellations did not include a year date. In this case, the presence of the 1894 date is a nice because it means that this stamp cannot be from Print 5 which was in July 1895. A very attractive example with a nice cancellation.

11, Facit #12a-II (Print 2) Early Printing, Light Reddish Carmine, Thin Paper. AFA #8.2 [1876 (1878 Printing) 10 aur, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with Fine centering and neat, light single ring cancellation. Facit #12a represents printings 1-4 (but the AFA lists them individually); the individual printings are of course scarcer than the combined quantity of all four printings. Examples of the early printings in attractive quality are surprisingly hard to find. The AFA Specialized 2016 (the most recent edition) value is DKK 300 [about US$45 10/2023] while the Facit 2024 value for all four printings combined is SEK 400 [about US$40 10/2023]. An excellent example of this early color.

Each of the different perforation errors affects that vertical column in the sheet. Additionally this example has one of the several versions of the AFA #8y plate variety: "Chunk missing from upper right frame line". Similar, but different versions of this variety exist in the sheet. Used with Superb centering and well centered and fully dated 22 June 1896 REYKJAVIK bridge cancellation.

12 (Reddish) Brown, Facit #13c [1876 16 aur brown Numeral, perforation 14 x 13.5, 1886 printing] Used with XF centering and neat smaller-town (one of five possible towns) corner cancellation. Wonderful color and centering, with remarkably light cancellation, and perfect perforations. [The 1891 grayish brown "unclean color" printing can be hard to distinguish from this 1886 yellowish brown printing (color names per the catalogs). When directly compared, the 1891 color does look a bit grayish (and sometimes muddy), but in my opinion it looks more yellowish than this 1886 printing. If I had selected the color names, I would have called the 1891 yellowish brown and this 1886 either brown or reddish brown.] Nice looking examples are hard to find. Facit assigns the same values for Used examples of 1886 and 1891 printings, but the 1886 printing had fewer printed and is much harder to find in nice quality.

Greidslumerki Facit #G2 [1932 75 aur Gulfoss waterfall postage stamp, Scott #175, with Greidslumerki (Greiðslumerki) 10 aur invoice / payment tax overprint] Used with VF centering, with neat manuscript cancellation, and small corner of a postal cancellation, on a small piece of postal money order or cash-on-delivery card AND with part of a Danish-printing (engraved) Greidslumerki stamp on the reverse. The tax payment was required on "both ends" of the transaction, whenever a payment of money occurred, thus two stamps were required. Not only are uses of this overprinted stamp quite scarce on a postal item, but it is extremely scarce showing both stamps (even if one is partial) and even more special in that it shows that both stamps were in use simultaneously, though at different post offices. The stamp on the back was cut in half when the front stamp was clipped out of the card by the post office for kiloware (after the required period that these cards had to be retained). To the best of my recollection, I have had only one other such example in 49 years (and never any complete cards). Seldom offered stamp that is unknown to many collectors. [Only two postage stamps were overprinted for this purpose, #174 and #175.] An outstanding example.

Even though use by companies was much greater than use by the post office, company handstamp (and manuscript) cancellations seem to be scarcer because the postal uses were saved through clipping postal money orders for kiloware, but fewer commercial uses were saved.

This block shows THREE constant plate varieties: Upper left stamp (sheet position 81) has "color spot between legs of sheep"; lower left stamp (position 91) has "color spot in lower right of right mountainside"; and lower right stamp (position 92) has "color spots to left of sheep". These varieties only appear once per sheet, but I do not know if they appear in either of the other two printings or in the same positions. A beautiful position piece offered for little more than the break-up value.

6 [1873 4 skilling, Perforation 12.5] Used with XF centering and huge, even margins all around, but with small, hidden faults (faint crease at lower left corner; crease and small tear at upper right corner). This is a terrific-looking stamp and it really does require a 10x magnifier to see the problems. The very thin paper used for these stamps results in most examples having such problems. This example has the usual rough perforations that are so typical of the Perf 12.5 stamps -- that is normal and expected, not a defect. The cancellation is very light, but it is an almost perfect, upright REYKJAVIK cancellation of the proper type for this stamp, used in the correct time period. Strong color and nice white paper -- an outstanding looking example! This 4 skilling Perforation 12.5 stamp is among the rarest regularly issued stamps from Iceland. It is usually one of the last regularly issued Icelandic stamps obtained by most collectors. This example is much, much nicer than is usually seen! Facit 2024 value with a normal cancellation is SEK 19,000 and Scott 2024 value is $2250. A very attractive example of a greatly under-appreciated stamp that is missing from virtually all collections.

AFA Specialized 2016 (most recent edition) lists this plate variety on the underlying stamp as #86x, but they forgot to list the plate variety with the overprint (I have notified the editors). The variety is from plate position 9, and also exists on some other stamps in the issue, consists of broken green background lines on either side of the portrait, roughly in line with the mouth, resulting in white areas. This variety is rarely offered and is quite difficult to find with nice centering.

Wonderfully fresh example with great color, perfect line perforations, and pristine gum. This "C4" line perforation was made by separate perforator tool strokes to make the horizontal vs vertical perforations, thus the four corner teeth are random in shape and appearance. Furthermore the perforator tool was worn out with bent hole-punches, thus the thickness of the teeth / spacing between the holes can vary. This line-perforated stamp is hard to find with nice centering. Examples this nice are rarely offered -- and blocks are rarely seen -- but then any examples of this perforation are very scarce!

273 [1952 25 kr Parliament Building] Used with VF centering, and neatly struck YEAR-DATED 1957 REYKJAVIK cancellation. While this stamp is not particularly scarce in Used condition, it is remarkably difficult to find with a year-dated cancellation. In my experience, fewer than one out of 30 examples have a year dated cancellation! Excellent example crisp engraving impression and perfect perforations. The centering on this issue varies considerably; well-centered examples can be hard to find.

While this stamp is not particularly scarce in Used condition, first day covers are quite scarce (Facit 2022 value SEK 1200 = $120 7/2023). A handsome example.

278-82 [1953 Ancient Icelandic Manuscripts / Books] NEVER HINGED complete set in BLOCKS OF FOUR with SUPERB centering. A very carefully selected set with remarkable centering and wonderful color and freshness. While a basic NH set is not hard to find, a set of such nicely centered blocks is very unusual! (A set of single stamps this nice would fetch $60 or more; this set of blocks is priced below that break-up value.)

305 [1957 Bessastadir (Presidential Residence)] NEVER HINGED lower left PLATE NUMBER 1 CORNER MARGIN BLOCK OF FOUR with VF-XF centering. A fabulous example of a key plate block of this era. There is only one plate block per sheet and only one plate number position for each stamp issue. There is no catalog that lists these plate blocks, but the are remarkably hard to find; especially for this high-denomination "key" stamp. (Single stamp of this quality sell for $30 each, but plate blocks are incredibly scarcer!) To the best of my recollection, this is the only example I have had in 49 years!

59 [1902 "I GILDI" black overprint on 50 aur Numeral, perforation 12.75] LOWER LEFT corner margin 4-block with F-VF/Fine centering. A very fresh and nice example. Shows the watermarked letters in margin and also the posthorn watermark in the corner margin. It is helpful to know what the latter looks like because it is theoretically possible for it to show up on stamps (due to a paper / printing shift) and is quite scarce thus. Very fresh and attractive; strong perforations, NO separations and NO creases.

219 Line Perf 14x14, irregular corners (Facit #242C4) [1941 5 aur brown Fish] NEVER HINGED BLOCK OF FOUR with F-VF centering with perfect perforations. The color of the line perforated 5 aur stamp is paler / lighter than the other perforation 14x14 stamp. On these issues the perforation differences are most obvious in blocks. This "C4" line perforation was made by separate perforator tool strokes to make the horizontal vs vertical perforations, thus the four corner teeth are random in shape and appearance. Furthermore the perforator tool was worn out with bent hole-punches, thus the thickness of the teeth / spacing between the holes can vary. This line-perforated stamp is hard to find with nice centering; this is better than usual. Blocks of this stamp are rarely offered, but then any examples of this perforation are very scarce!

20, Facit #19, AFA #17 INVERTED FRAME [1892 100 aur brown and lilac Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5] Mint, moderately hinged, with F-VF centering. [The Bicolored Numeral stamps of Iceland do have frame differences (the quantity of vertical background lines broken by the upper right or lower left corner triangles that identify the frames as upright or inverted. By chance the quantities are even; the plate consisted of 51 upright vs 49 inverted frame stamps, thus there is no price premium. For details, see this article with illustrations on my website. However, this difference is unknown to most collectors; if the difference was more obvious and better known, the extant quantity of stamps would be divided in half, with each half being assigned different catalog numbers -- half as many stamps (of each number) would result in higher catalog values / prices for each of the two types.] This example is very fresh and bright, with nice centering, and perfect perforations. Priced just as a basic stamp with this centering.

Each sheet contained 51 normal frames and 49 inverted frames. For details, see this article with illustrations on my website.

Perfect perforations and nice color. PLATE VARIETY: The top frameline has a large break about one-third from the left side. This variety is not shown in the handbook by Regeling, thus the plate could have been damaged and quickly repaired or the break could have appeared very late in the first printing (and repaired before the second printing), thus not known to Regeling. Facit 2022 value for normal quality examples of the first printing is SEK 1500! That does not take into account the variety; though this variety is not listed by AFA, it is more prominent than most that are listed and those have a value premium of about 65%!

H3E likely exists with any of the three panes upright or inverted. I have only had this one example of a H3E booklet in 49 years. From the Garson collection. [The most complete and specialized listing of Icelandic booklets was in the Facit 2006 catalog.] The Facit value of this H3E booklet was SEK 24,000 in 2006. The current 2022 Facit (with less specialized listings) still shows a value of SEK 24,000 (approximately $2400 in February 2023)! That being said, it does not seem that the Facit editors have actually reviewed this pricing in many years. While the missing corner of one 5 aur stamp is a defect, other than that problem, the booklet and the stamps are wonderfully fresh. The stamps in the booklet are scarce in NH condition; the individual selling prices of the stamps totals right at $1000! This intact booklet early booklet is extremely scarce and is rarely offered in any condition.

The current 2022 Facit catalog (with less specialized listings) does not break out the pricing of the six possible H5 versions; instead it shows only a single value of SEK 18,000 now -- which would be for the most common version which was valued at SEK 12,000 back in 2006. From that we can extrapolate that a properly updated Facit value for H5G would probably be in the range of SEK 22,000 to 24,000 now (approximately $2200 to $2400 February 2023). The Facit editors do not seem to have actually reviewed this pricing in many years. The booklet is in VF condition and the stamps in the booklet have centering that ranges from F-VF to VF -- all the stamps are wonderfully fresh. The stamps in the booklet are scarce in NH condition; the individual selling prices of the stamps totals $1865 for F-VF centering (even though some of them are better than F-VF)! The value of the contents fully supports the current H5 "generic" Facit value, to say nothing of the extrapolated current H5G Facit value. This intact booklet early booklet is extremely scarce and is rarely offered in any condition.

UNLISTED booklet similar to Facit #H4 EXCEPT CONTAINING 5 aur OVERPRINT ON 35 aur Jochumsson. : 1939-1940 complete booklet with Light Blue cover; Cover type G (front cover with words "um alt land" and NOT "um allt land"). 5 aur OVERPRINT on 35 aur Blue Jochumsson (Scott #212) pane of five -- NO ICELANDIC BOOKLET IS LISTED AS INCLUDING THIS STAMP!; 10 aur Ultramarine (NOT Gray Blue) and Carmine Flag (Scott #228) pane of five, and 25 aur RED Fish LINE PERFORATION VARIETY (Scott #224 variety, Facit #248C4) pane of five with plate number "2" in margin (one stamp with small natural paper inclusion). The 5 aur and 10 aur panes are upright (mounted by left margins) and the 25 aur pane is inverted (mounted by bottom margin). Prior to this, I had only previously seen one Icelandic booklet from this era with a plate number showing in the margin as it is on this 25 aur pane. This is the only example of any booklet containing the 5-on-35 aur Jochumsson stamp that is known to me. One of the definitions of what makes a booklet a "different major catalog number" is the stamp or combination of stamps in the booklet. By that definition, this booklet should have its own major catalog number in Facit. I have reported this booklet to the Facit editors. This booklet is from the Garson collection. [The most complete and specialized listing of Icelandic booklets was in the Facit 2006 catalog. This booklet was not listed in that edition, nor in any later edition.] Assuming that this booklet is not unique (but it is certainly very rare) -- though it is possible that it is unique -- I estimate a catalog value should be in the range of SEK 35,000 ($3500) based on the high values of the other 1939-1946 booklets which are known to exist in at least modest quantities. However, if this booklet is unique, the value could easily be much higher. The booklet is in PRISTINE condition and the stamps in the booklet have centering that ranges from VF to XF -- all the stamps are wonderfully fresh. The 25 aur RED stamps variety with the scarce line perforation in the booklet are quite scarce in NH condition, selling for $269 each; the total of all the individual selling prices is over $1345. An important Icelandic booklet rarity!

Facit #H7H/I VARIETY. Panes: Fish 5 aur mounted by top margin, 10 aur gray bottom margin, 25 aur brown-red bottom. : 1945 complete booklet with Dark Greenish Blue BACK COVER and Light Blue FRONT COVER. This booklet has COVER TYPE COMBINATION: Front Cover Type H and Back Cover Type one of I through L (as noted below, there are Facit listings problems in I-K vs L). The front cover has "SOFFIUBUD" 29 mm wide; words "um allt land" and NOT "um alt land". The inside front cover (side 2) has the star between two loops and NOT just a star. Those are all characteristics of Cover Type H. However, the back cover has: above "Simar: 4690-5690" and below "Simar:5690-4690". To add to the fun, the front cover is dark greenish blue (which Facit says is the color for Cover Type "I") and the back cover is light blue (or blue) which Facit says blue is the color for Cover Type "H". [At the same time, to confuse things further, there appears to be either a textual typo or an image error in Facit 2006 for the back cover of Cover Types I-K vs Type L (in regard to the "Simar" features).] I have previously encountered cover variations (combinations of front and back covers), in addition to the interleaf combination variations footnoted by Facit. I do not know if this booklet is a scarcer, unlisted variation, or if this is just showing up an error in Facit. Regardless, the Facit listings need further work. 5 aur Brown Fish (Scott #219 [1941-46]) pane of five; 10 aur GRAY Fish (Scott #222) pane of five, and 25 aur BROWN-RED Fish (Scott #225) pane of five with PLATE NUMBER "2" in margin. Prior to this, I had only previously seen one Icelandic booklet from this era with a plate number showing in the margin as it is on this 25 aur pane. This booklet likely exists with any of the three panes mounted by top or bottom margins. From the Garson collection. [The most complete and specialized listing of Icelandic booklets was in the Facit 2006 catalog.] Facit only lists this combination of stamps as being in Cover Types H and I (and M and N, but this is neither of those). The 2006 Facit values of H7H and H7I are SEK 7500 and 7000 respectively (Approximately $750 and $700 in February 2023) -- and in 2022 Facit generically valued the most common H7 variation at SEK 7500. This example, not quite fitting either of those definitions may be a scarcer, more valuable unlisted variety. The Facit editors do not seem to have actually reviewed this pricing in many years. The booklet is in PRISTINE condition and the stamps in the booklet have centering that ranges from F-VF to VF -- all the stamps are wonderfully fresh. The intact booklet early booklet is scarce as listed by Facit, but this unusual combination of cover types and colors is likely to be much scarcer as the people hand-making the booklet were likely in a short-duration transition between old and new supplies of front and back covers.

1 [1873 2 skilling] Mint, without gum (as usual), with Average centering (fairly typical) and nice overall appearance. The perforations are just into the lower part of the left frame line, but otherwise very close to being Fine. The horizontal perforations, especially at bottom, are rougher than the side perforations as normal and expected for this issue. Other than a slightly rounded lower left corner perforation, this stamp is without defects and is a nice example of the first Icelandic stamp, with great color and fresh appearance. Facit 2022 value (with gum) is SEK 9500.

This stamp does have thin paper as expected, but the thin paper "is on the thickest side of thin" that I have observed on the skilling stamps. As a result, the perforations are much better (cleaner and more complete) than usual. A nice looking stamp at a very low price.

The intense color is terrific and the perforations are much better and cleaner than usually found on this stamp. Without the quality problems, this example would fetch $675! Most collections of Used Icelandic stamps are either missing this stamp or contain an example canceled after the period of validity. An attractive example offered at a very attractive price! Facit 2022 value SEK 5,500 and Scott 2022 value $650.

3 INVERTED WATERMARK [1873 8 skilling] Mint with original gum, very modestly hinged, with F-VF centering and three huge margins. Also with AFA-listed plate variety AFA #3y "cut off lower right corner" from position 43 in the plate of 25 cliches which was struck four times to print a full sheet; thus this variety is from sheet positions 43, 48, 93, and 98. Only 1600 stamps with this plate variety originally existed, but only a few sheets (quantity unknown, but scarce) had an inverted watermark, thus possibly only a few dozen of this variety originally existed with inverted watermark -- and far fewer still remain in existence today. Perfect perforations (quite remarkable for the 8 sk stamp!) with fresh color and great overall appearance. An attractive example of a scarce watermark variety. Even without taking into consideration the scarcity of the inverted watermark and/or the plate variety, this is a remarkably nice example of the 8 skilling stamp. The Facit 2022 value is SEK 4,000 for Mint Hinged with inverted watermark, plus the value of the plate variety (the AFA premium is about 25% for the plate variety alone).

While this is not a "scarce" cancellation, it is seldom seen so complete on individual small-size stamps. Also because this cancel device started in use in 1906, it is quite unusual on the Christian IX stamps. The cancel strike is sideways, but this is the only way that the full town name and full date could possibly fit on the stamp! An outstanding example of stamp that can be quite hard to find in such nice quality and also very hard to find with nice small town cancellations.

44B [1904 5 kr Christian IX] Used with Fine centering and small part of corner cancellation leaving the portrait "face free". Great color, perfect perforations, and excellent overall appearance. However, there is not enough of the cancellation present to guarantee that it is a proper cancellation, thus instead of pricing at the normal Used Fine price of $145, I have priced it at the lower Mint Hinged price. Still a very nice looking example.

44B [1904 5 kr Christian IX] Used with F-VF centering, but upper right corner perforation tooth slightly clipped (it is so minor and in the area of the cancellation that most people would not notice it). Also, small blue spot on reverse (does NOT show through), probably from a very old owners mark. Excellent overall appearance and a great price! Otherwise this centering would be $215.

44B [1904 5 kr Christian IX] Used with VF centering, however with worn appearance and color somewhat faded. While I think that this stamp may have been genuinely used on a high-value (registered, insured, or parcel) letter leaving the country, the cancellation either confuses the issue or makes the stamp much more rare. The cancellation is a type (with "9-4 E" hours indicator) that was not used in Iceland in this era. It appears to be a Danish postmark with a "K." at the bottom (for the "København K" post office). That is typical type of Danish cancellation found on Icelandic "fishing boat mail" - mail that was either mailed at sea, or was accepted at the dock in Iceland right before leaving port, and was handed over to the Danish post office upon arrival at a port in Denmark. What makes this example especially interesting in that regard is that a Danish cancellation on this high denomination stamp is "quite rare". However, without more research, I cannot vouch for the cancellation. If it were not worn and faded, and if it had a certificate, it would be valued at multiple times the normal Used value.

Though year date not showing, very nice strike for this type of item -- and VERY UNUSUAL on one of the provisional surcharges. An ordinary example of this stamp with this centering would be $24, but "99%" of those are the usual Reykjavik or other larger-town cancellations. While the catalog value of the postmark is not high, it is surprisingly seldom seen.

The top sheet margin shows part of the center registration mark, thus identifying this block as containing positions 1-5 and 10-15. This "C4" line perforation was made by separate perforator tool strokes to make the horizontal vs vertical perforations, thus the four corner teeth are random in shape and appearance -- in this 10-block, one can see that all the perforation intersections are slightly different. Furthermore the perforator tool was worn out with bent hole-punches, thus the thickness of the teeth / spacing between the holes can vary. Blocks of the line-perforated stamps can be hard to find; use blocks even harder, and a 10-block such as this is very seldom seen.

11 PERFORATION ERROR, Facit #12d variety, AFA #8.7y variety, Clear Carmine Red, Thick Paper [1876 10 aur Numeral, Perforation 14 x 13.5 (1895 printing)] This perforation "error" variety -- blind perforation in 5th horizontal hole -- is one of four possible varieties resulting from missing horizontal row pins in the perforating machine -- they are constant varieties on the 7th (1895) printing of this stamp (and the 1895 printings of the 3 and 6 aur stamps). Each of the different perforation errors affects that vertical column in the sheet. Additionally this example has one of the several versions of the AFA #8y plate variety: "Chunk missing from upper right frame line". Similar, but different versions of this variety exist in the sheet; at least two different exist with this particular perforation error. Mint with F-VF centering with only modest hinging, but small thin spot in hinge area. Very attractive appearance with brilliant color. Mint examples of the perforation errors can be quite hard to find. A normal example of this mint stamp, without the thin spot and with this centering would be $204 -- the perforation errors are much scarcer.

66 INVERTED WATERMARK [1902 40 aur Perf 14 x 13.5 with Black I GILDI overprint] NEVER HINGED with Fine centering. Wonderfully fresh and bright. This is one of the scarcest inverted watermarks of the non-rarity I GILDI overprints -- I have not recorded having an example in the last 25 years and I do not recall having an example in the 24 years before that. Neither Facit nor the AFA Specialized list a price for this inverted watermark stamp in NH condition -- Facit does list NH values for other inverted watermark stamps in I GILDI overprints (AFA does not provide any NH prices for any inverted watermark stamps). Facit 2022 value for HINGED is SEK 1600 [1/2022 $190] and AFA Specialized 2016 (most recent edition) value for Hinged is DKK 1200 [1/2022 $205]. In Facit, other I GILDI stamps with inverted watermarks have a 40% to 150% premium value! This stamp is very scarce with inverted watermark and "rare" thus in NH condition.

2, AFA 2y SMALL CLICHE [1873 4 skilling, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint, with full original gum (unusual), extremely lightly hinged, with XF centering and brilliant color. This is a wonderful example of a little-known, but major variety. The height of the design is only about 19 mm instead of 20 mm -- this is been listed by AFA with little fanfare, but it is not listed by Scott and is otherwise seldom mentioned in the literature... despite this small cliche appearing in 8 positions in the sheet! Regardless of the variety, this is an exceptional well-centered and large-margined example, that looks NH without a magnifying glass. The perforations are absolutely perfect -- extremely unusual for an example of the Skilling stamps. The combination of the quality and the variety make this a truly exceptional "GEM" example that defies any catalog valuation. AFA Specialized 1996 (most recent edition) value for the mint variety in ordinary quality is DKK 2000 = $330 [12/2021], compared to DKK 1200 for the normal type. However an example such as this -- the finest I have seen of this variety in 48 years -- commands a significant premium. Only 8000 of this variety originally existed -- surely only a small fraction of those remain today -- and likely not more than a few dozen of the original quantity of the variety could have looked this nice -- perhaps this is the finest remaining example? A superlative stamp for a superlative collection.

2 [1873 4 skilling, Perf 14 x 13.5] Used with a perfectly centered REYKJAVIK cancellation, but that was applied after the end of the skilling currency period, i.e. "after-canceled". The cancellation is a genuine postmark type, just applied after the period of validity of the skilling stamps. Other than some of the relative angles of the lettering, this cancellation Type (Facit) G1b looks almost identical to the correct-period cancellation Type D2 -- see the Facit Classic for illustrations of the difference. Fine centering, strong color, and with extremely nice perforations for a skilling issue (the horizontal perforations are almost always rough). Accompanied by an 1998 APS certificate stating "Used, genuine in all respects" -- not mentioning the cancellation (I was not an APS examiner of this stamp at that time). An unusually well-centered strike of this cancellation, but appropriately offered at a very low price. (For comparison, Scott 2022 value for a correctly canceled Used stamp is $900.)

15 Golden Yellow [1882 3 aur, Small 3, Perf 14 x 13.5] Mint with VF centering and large margins, but no gum and with a small crease that could perhaps be flattened out. This is a complicated and controversial stamp color; it was the subject of an extensive article, by expert Lasse Nielsen, in one of the Danish journals around 2013-2017; I cannot find my copy of the article at this moment. For many years Facit did not list this color, but they do now as Facit #8v3. Facit describes it as being on "thick soft white paper from Printing 2 or 3, not yet determined which". I agree with that except that in my opinion, the paper is "medium (but close to thin), very crisp (not soft), and it is white." AFA lists this color as #12.3b, being from Printing 3b and describes the paper as "medium". Regardless, this is an extremely scarce stamp. Facit and AFA only price it (as they always do) with gum, but the three Mint examples I have recorded having in the last 25 years have all been without gum; I do not think I have had an example with gum in my 48-year career. Facit 2022 value is SEK 8000 = $960 [12/2021] and AFA Specialized 2016 (most recent edition) value is DKK 6000 = $1020 [12/2021]. Well centered examples of this color are "rare". Despite the small crease, which is hard to see, this is by far the best looking example of this stamp that I have had in 48 years. It is really stunning with wonderful centering, brilliant color, and perfect perforations. An exceptional stamp that will help to build an exceptional collection.

15 PERFORATION ERROR, Facit #8e variety, AFA #12.5 variety, Brownish Orange, Thick Paper [1882 3 aur Numeral, Perf 14 x 13.5 (1895 printing)] This perforation "error" variety -- blind perforation in 5th horizontal hole -- is one of four possible varieties resulting from missing horizontal row pins in the perforating machine -- they are constant varieties on the 5th (1895) printing of this stamp (and the 1895 printings of the 6 and 10 aur stamps). Each of the different perforation errors affects that vertical column in the sheet. Mint with F-VF centering. There is some gum loss where a hinge was removed (and the gum went with the hinge), but it does not have a thin and does not show any defect in watermark fluid. Very attractive appearance. Mint examples of the perforation errors can be quite hard to find. A normal example of this mint stamp would be $72 -- the perforation errors are much scarcer.

Each of the different perforation errors affects that vertical column in the sheet. Additionally this example has one of the several versions of the AFA #8y plate variety: "Chunk missing from upper right frame line". Similar, but different versions of this variety exist in the sheet; at least two different exist with this particular perforation error. Mint with VF centering with only modest hinging. Very attractive appearance -- exceptionally well-centered example. Mint examples of the perforation errors can be quite hard to find. A normal example of this mint stamp would be $270 -- the perforation errors are much scarcer.

O9 [1895 50 aur Official, perforation 14 x 13.5] Used with Fine centering and with bold "(FRA) ISLAND" DANISH INCOMING SHIP MAIL CANCELLATION. Very attractive, but with expertly repaired and reperforated top margin. The stamp centering, clearing the perforations, is better than usual for the 50 aur. While this type of cancellation is commonly seen on regular Icelandic stamps of this era, Danish incoming ship mail cancellations are rare on Icelandic Official stamps. Early Official mail leaving the country is extremely rare; Official stamps were likely only accepted on mail going as far as Denmark. I cannot recall having, in the last 48 years, any examples of an Official stamp this early bearing such a cancellation. Provenance: from the Roger A. Swanson collection, from of a page of six 50 aur stamps sold by Northland Auctions in 1995; subsequently in the Frederick H. Campbell collection, prior to my purchasing the group. The scarcity of this cancellation on this stamp is demonstrated by a) that somebody would so expertly repair such a stamp and b) a high-level collector and prominent international exhibitor such as Swanson would include it in his collection.

Mint F-VF centered, with very nice original gum (with-gum examples are scarce). The paper is so thin that the watermark is fully visible from the front of the stamp! As the 2020 Facit value of SEK 1200 indicates, this printing is quite scarce. Very attractive and wonderfully fresh.

90 Rough Perforation Variety [1911 15 aur Sigurdsson] Used with XF-Superb centering and neat, light corner cancellation. This example has an unusual feature. The watermark is so pronounced (the paper is so thin in that area) that the printing of the design did not fully impress into the watermark area, thus you can see the faint outline of the watermark in the lower left quadrant of the stamp where the ink coverage is not quite complete.

O2a IMPERFORATE Facit TJ2v1 [1873 8 skilling lilac Official, Imperforate] Mint, no gum, with large margins and Superb appearance. This imperforate has a watermark (which distinguishes it from being a proof); it was issued with gum, but this example is without gum. Huge margins and strong color (for this stamp), however, there is a curious horizontal line in the bottom third -- mostly only visible under 10x magnification -- that is either a paper inclusion, a removed pen mark (this stamp is not known used), or a repaired paper break. As a dealer, I have to assume the worst, but it is sure a nice looking example of a very scarce stamp! Facit 2020 value SEK 5000!

A very handsome mint example of this workhorse stamp of which supplies were exhausted in normal postal use.

34 [1902 3 aur Christian IX] Used with XF centering and proper AKUREYRI single-ring provincial cancellation. Almost full cancel but inverted (this cancellation style did not contain a year date). This issue is hard to find with full single-ring town cancellations. Excellent example. Though not a scarce stamp, examples this nice are seldom seen.

35 variety, AFA #36v [1902 4 aur Christian IX] Mint F-VF, lightly hinged with the frame variety "colored line in frame color between frame and portrait". Exists from positions 5, 8, 9, 20, 55, 58, 59, and 70, thus there are small differences between them: THIS EXAMPLE SHOWS A SHORT, THICK LINE ABOVE THE R of RD. Though this AFA-listed variety exists from several positions, is remarkably seldom found and is rarely offered for sale. Very fresh and attractive.

35 variety, Facit #64v, AFA #36x [1902 4 aur Christian IX] NH VF-XF with the frame variety "AUP instead of AUR" from positions 95 in the sheet. This variety is the result of damage to the cliche, not because the engraver made a P instead of an R. However, any variety that changes the text of a stamp is of intense interest to collectors. This example is wonderfully fresh and bright. Facit 2020 value is SEK 1500 and AFA 2016 Specialized value is DKK 800. Seldom offered, in fact I have only had a couple examples of this variety in 46 years (and no others this nice!) which causes me to think the cliche damage probably occurred later in the printing process. I believe that this variety is significantly undervalued in the catalogs.

A very distinct and clear type of constant variety. Because this is obviously major plate damage (and not just a piece of trash on the plate), it is by definition a constant variety. However, it is so obvious that it was probably repaired very quickly and thus few copies may exist (with the result that it has not come to the attention of the catalog editors). This is more obvious than any of the listed varieties on the Sigurdsson issue! A very special item that should become listed! Listed varieties that are nowhere near as obvious are listed at DKK 450!

91 PARTIAL DOUBLE PRINT [1911 25 aur Sigurdsson] Mint Fine+, with one shorter perforation. This example shows a very clear doubling, which is what is called a "kiss print" or "slide print" -- as the paper is coming into contact or leaving contact with the plate, it accidentally touches the plate a second time. This gives one the sense of a double impression, but it is not doubled over the whole stamp. This example shows strong doubling in the left margin and the "25". This type of variety is quite rare on Icelandic stamps (or Danish stamps; the same firm printed the stamps of both countries at the time). Very interesting and attractive.
