Nicely centered (superb), nearly complete full circular, black-inked, single-rimmed, socked-on-the-nose cancellation with complete mailing details centered right and down from middle and extending over most of the front of the stamp {GRENȦ, 1930, 6-8,1976}, mailed from Grenȧ, a town and seaport of about 14,000 people on the east coast of the Jutland Peninsula, on June 8th, 1976 and lifted from the post box and cancelled at 7:30PM in the evening, sound back, off-positioned hinge remnant, and penciled identification number on back, good perforations; centering, Slania engraving, and mailing details cancel warrants a selling price premium. This is not a 'bait-and-switch' offer; the stamp you see will be the one you receive.

Please review my terms of sale. If you are not ordering from the United States, there is a $US1.65 additional postage expense that needs to be added to the price of the stamp. If you are ordering from the United States, there is only a $US0.73 added postage expense. Also, if you make additional purchases from my offerings, they can all go in one mailing at no extra shipping expense for the added purchases. I will send the purchase by US first class mail, since the relatively low value of the stamp does not warrant signature or tracking mail. Hence the buyer assumes risk of loss or non-delivery. I will keep a scan of my mailing to verify that the correct mailing address was used.

By way of reference, I am an American Philatelic Society member (195176) and an American Stamp Dealers Association (ASDA) member. Thank you for looking, and I hope this is the perfect stamp to fill that gap in your collection.
