1898 5a brown, perf. 12 3/4, well centered, l.h., reperforated at right otherwise fine. This stamp is from the 5th printing, which was almost exclusively overprinted "I Gildi", and stamps without the overprint were not regularly issued and are extremely scarce. This stamp is listed but unpriced in Facit, Michel and AFA (it is mentioned in a footnote in Scott's following No.O11), with 1980 S.Kaiser and 1980 Nielsen certs. A major rarity from Iceland
